This is pretty cool. We're building a 69 Camaro to show our appreciation for serving our country. My bro-in-law is in the Army and is currently serving in Baghdad, Iraq. His mother, who he lost a few years back, used to own a 69 Camaro. He always talked about wanting to get a Camaro like his mom's old car.

So we've decided to build him one and surprise him with it when he gets back. :D

We are still searching for the car, haven't found a good one yet for a decent price. We're trying to find one that doesn't need too much body work, as we have a local guy donating the body work.

It really is amazing how people have come together for this project! A few sponsors of this site have offered parts and services, once we get all the details ironed out I'll post pics and all that good stuff.

I just hope I can find a car soon. Seems like everything around here is ungodly priced. :help:

To follow along with the project, check out http://www.patriotdream.org or check my posts here. The sponsors have been so good to us, I'll keep updates as the car progresses.

If anyone is interested in helping out, just give me a shout or email me through the webpage.

I'm really doubt he is gonna see this. He has VERY limited computer access and all the family is keeping really hush hush on it.

Special thanks to Undercover Innovations and G-Machine Racing for their donations! I'll post photos and everything once this things gets rolling!
