So, I've been browsing the boards for a while, just never got around to posting. My car is finally off to undergo surgery so I figured now is as good a time as any.

What I have: A 1969 Camaro, red with black stripes, a 350 with a tunnel ram, TH350 transmission, 10-bolt rear with 3.08 gears, all new interior, etc.

What I will soon have: A Carb'd L92 with a custom ground cam, custom hearders and exhaust (thanks S&S Automotive), Fab 9 with 3.73's, 19x9.5 and 19x8.5 wheels, QA1 Coilovers up front, Global West UCA's, and some other things I'm probably forgetting.

I would post pics of the tear down and buildup, but I dropped the car off in Bakersfield on Sunday and forgot my camera.

You have any pics of it? Sounds like it's going to be sick. What kind of wheels you going to run?

Haven't decided on wheels yet. Ideally, Fesler FS 904's...But that's pushing the budget a bit. I will take tons of pictures when I go up to see it in 2 weeks.

Thats looks sweeet. Did you add that glare/shine on the bumper to emphasize how clean it is? :headbang: just kidding. Keep us posted
