Finally Staring One!

[ottatyme]

After years of drawing up renderings for others, the wife and I are finally going at a dream we've shared for years (well, me since high school, her since she couldn't bear my whining anymore...). I had created sketches for it a looooong time ago, and a decent rendering some time back, and as of last evening, we have found a decent donor car to start with, a 1971 Nova, that will receive a lot of style from a '69 Camaro (sheetmetal, etc)... A travelling salesman friend had been scouting for cars for some time, and was a great broker in the deal.
It's a lofty plan, but we've got a majority of the technical stuff figured out, and have chosen a shop in the mid-west to help out on the heavy fab work.
It'll run 302 cross-ram (our nod to the DZ 302 Camaro's), a T-5, and a 9-inch, and inside, we're leaving the bench, just to be different... There's a lot more to the plan, and I'll share more as we go along, and pull hair out, cuss, eat a lot of Raemen....
