Howdy!
Im relatively new to the site, Ive trolled around a bit looking at different info but never posted, just been extremely busy.
A lil about me, I purchased a 67 Camaro early last summer since its been my dream to purchase and build a first gen Camaro. I almost didnt since I am military and dont exactly have a place to put it and all the parts but thankfully my parents dont use their garage much and let me put the car there lol. I paid cash for the car and have yet to have enough to start on the little body work needed as I dont have a mig welder or plasma cutter to do anything and cant afford to pay the labor and parts all in one shot...
I plan on making the car a performer but not to race so much as just to handle nice and tight but comfortable to go cruse in on the weekends. I am wanting to put 68 windows in the doors, put the flush mount glass in front and back, custom interior, LS3 motor with a T56 and 12 bolt behind it. I have alot of ideas for the car and am already planning on it costing anywhere from 30-35k to complete with most of the work being done by me as tools permit. Im a bit OCD and a perfectionist when it comes to my vehicles especially this car! Any input would be great as far as ideas for suspension goes especially as I am looking for a subframe since I dont currently have one.
