Hey Guys,
Well here it goes…..The start to a new project. This is a pretty good foundation for my plans with this 1969 Firebird. This is around a ten year old restoration. The body is solid no rust..all metal. I updated the engine this past spring and also put SSBC disc brakes on the front. The engine is a 463 cu in w/eagle rotating assembly/mahle pistons with turbo 400 trans. The engine and trans are coming out going with Ls1/T56. Even bigger brakes, suspension upgrades, paint, wheels/tires and interior in the works. I am going to be able to get a good start in the next two months of stripping and disassembly. Any pointers, ideas, suggestions will be greatly appreciated. I am steering away from original restorations and haven't had much experience with pro-touring style.. Although, I am excited and think this will be awesome project. I will be looking for suspension parts. control arms, coil overs, wheels, etc., and interior components. I think I have found a donor engine and trans 2001 Camaro thats salvaged from reared collision for nearly nothing with 56k miles. My engine is up for sale I have all the spec sheets and receipts I will entertain offers. It will be a month or so before the engine comes out. Thanks Everyone!
