Hi guys,

Thanks for letting me join the forum. Not many car communities still use forums and I miss that. I recently bought a 69 camaro project that someone abandoned. I'm new to camaros but not new to building nice high end cars. Here's some details on the build.

69 Camaro RS (Factory small block V8)

PARTS Included
No drive train currently (suggestions?)
Heidt's Pro-G Front IFS
Heidt's Pro-G Rear IRS
Mini-tub
Wilwood 4 piston rear and 6 piston fronts
Fesler Flush mount front and rear glass
Vintage Air Gen IV A/C kit
Marquez Design Dash, Door panels, rear panels, headliner, trunk, speaker tray, and tail lights
Dakota Digital Instrument Cluster to fit the Marquez Dash
Ring Brothers Hood/Trunk hinges
Kindigit Door Handles
Power Window Kit
New Grill with new electric hide away headlights and trim
Custom made fuel tank
Flaming River Column

Condition of Car
Original quarters with zero rust (impressive)
Original doors with zero rust
New fenders
New radiator support
New one piece floor
Custom exhaust made with center exit (need suggestions for fuel fill and where to put license plate)
All metal work and body work is 90% complete. ( I'm extremely anal about gaps and body work, this car is done right.)
Both bumpers are tucked up tight.

Questions (looking for advice)
What would you value this car at currently?
What engine/trans combo would fit this build best?
Where would you put the fuel filler?
Where to put license plate?

Here's a few pics
