Hello, I just realized Ive been on here a year and have yet to write a post:lurk:. I'm from Nebraska, I own yet another 69 Camaro Shocking Isn't it:rolleyes:??? I'm thinking of calling it dust collector, as that is what it has been best at for the past 9 years. The joys of being a dad, husband, and homeowner.
Anyways it was my dad's it sat in a shed for 12 years before I was old enough to do something with it. Long story short, I got it with no rear suspension, no front tires, engine, trans, interior, Just a shell. After I totaled my 78 nova I got it rolling with a rebuilt 305(from the Nova) and m22 with a bop10 bolt rear. later after I shelled the m22 I built one hell of a th350 and added 3000stall and 4:56 to the mix. That got me through high school and auto-tech College. I took a year of auto-body after tech and ripped it apart Replaced all the rust and Put in Weld in sub-frame connectors and formed rear frame-rails.
I have a 6.0lq4, a t56 and a ford9 I picked up that Ill go through, I got a set of new L92 heads and appropriate valve-train for the 6.0 and a comp xr281hr cam. There's a long list of stuff to do, and things to figure out. Starting with rear suspension and Roll cage.
maybe this year I can get around to actually doing some work on the car and start-up a build thread.
Obligatory pictures.
