Greetings,

I've been over at Camaros.net for a while but figured I'd check out the Pro-Touring scene since that's the build I'm going with.
I've been gathering as much information and insight I can from the forums and other members. My goal is to be able to drive it late summer/fall of this year. I utilize the military base hobby shops and my garage for as much of the work as possible to save money and it's a blast! I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions to get it ready.


Original Specs:
Codes show the car was Butternut Yellow with a black vinyl top, V8. I purchased in Colorado Springs back in 2013. It was someone's project and needed quite a bit of work. It's getting a new top, new quarter panels, hood, and more. It's currently at the body shop finishing up the quarters and getting a DSE mini-tub kit installed.

Thanks! I'm supposed to be getting the car back mid June from the body shop and the engine should be assembled and fired up before then. I'll be sure to keep it going here!
