New guy from Dallas

[reelmcoy]

Just came across this site. Been doing body work for 22 years and decided it was time to build a car for myself. Scared up a 73 Camaro from Death Valley. Very rust free but the lady that owned hit everything out there I think. Here is a pic shortly after I started tearing it down.

I am painting everything I can get to as the car is rebuilt.

Here it is as it sits today.All GM sheetmetal other than the hood and door skins. Took 1 1/2 years to scare up rust free metal for it.

Not sure what direction I am going with it but do have a 500 hp small block and a 12 bolt posi in the garage for it already.

I lurk more than I post but will post if I have something worth while to say.

The Vette is a toy also. Mainly driven on weekends when the wife I go somewhere. We live south of Dallas in Waxahachie, but get to drive to Dallas for work.
