Another 69 Camaro

[slenning]

Hi everyone, been lurking here for a while picking up some good ideas and checking out all the great cars. For a long time I've been one of the stock "purists". I have a 69 Fathom Green SS396 that I restored 100% original. Well, after seeing the Mule and the Battle Axe and some other great cars out there I decided my next Camaro had to be different. I ordered just about everything DSE has to offer
and just finished installing the quadralink and minitubs. Just about done with the front coilover conversion, just needs to be welded. I
don't know much about LS motors so of course I ordered a LS7. Might as well jump in whole hog right? Should be here in a day or two. Gonna really have to pick a few of your brains on that one. Trying to get a full T56 kit ordered and coming this way soon too. Any ideas let me know.
By the way I've owned the 396 car since 1978 and the 69LS7 car, I like the way that sounds :-) ,for about eight years.

Sorry to be so windy. Steve

I will try to post a few pics of both my cars.

Thanks for the welcome guys!! Here's a few more pics. The LS7 has arrived. My T56 should be here next week. I ordered the tranny and install kit from Tyler at ATS. What a great guy to deal with. Body is off to get quarters in a few days. My son and I are doing everything else but I want to speed this build up so I'm farming out the bodywork.
