69 Firebird Project in New England

[69TAPoser]

I started out with a "Project" car that was "bodywork complete." :bsjerk:

I have since stripped the shell, had it media blasted, and ordered:

- A full floor
- A full trunk
- Inner rockers
- Roof
- Cowl
- Both toe panels
- Both rear frame rails
- Upper dash panel

The media blasting exposed the poor job that was done on the quarter panel patches (warped). So...this week I ordered full goodmark quarters and inners.


....basically, we are building a brand new car.

Seeing how I have gone this far into the body, I decided to do everything that I wanted to, so I am also ordering the DSE mini tub kit (should I go with 2" or 3" drop??) next week. I will also be going with the Global West front coil over/tubular kit.



The engine is done, it is a 525hp 455:



Looking for opinions on the 2" or 3" drop and what size tire/wheel combo.
