Whats up guys. Im putting together a 68 camaro 396 SS project.

Plans for car are:
DSE 3" leafs
Front coilovers
Rebuild my 396 and shine up the engine bay
M21 trans

Body will be Tux black with white bumble bee stripe
Interior is Black Houndstooth.

Might take me a year or 2 but hey its well worth the wait.

Who else is from the Bay Area?

hey steve,
Im taking it to go get the new 1 piece floor, trunk, and dash installed on saturday. The guy said I should have it back in a week (which means a month).

When I get it back you can come check it out if you want.

LOL, at least it sounds like you're ready for body shop/paint hell. Mine was supposed to be 3 months and it was 12 or more. It's worth it in the end.

Who's doing the metal work?
