Its been a long time dream to mod a 1st gen Camaro. Ive built many cars and bikes but it was never planed it just happened. This project was bought with it in my head that modding was comin. You guys will have to bare with me on this project. Its going to be a long project but worth it in the end. I hope to sell my Boat to fund whats coming. Ill be doing all the work myself including paint. Heres some pics of what Im workin with.

I cut the lip off the wheel wells today. I left 1/4 inch of lip. Im going to weld in a piece of round bar to finish it up.
I placed the rear wheels under the car so I could get a measurement for my rear end. Its 54 1/2 to the center of each pad. Tomorrow I call and order my Morrison rear end! Woo hoo

Awesome project keep us posted

very cool !!!

Looks great!

A tip on the round bar for your fender lip: use 1/4" stainless steel tube. It is easier to form, resists rust, and welds in easy.

Hey, that's lookin' sweet. The rear looks pretty "flush". Oops, I used the "F" word in here. ha ha Keep the pics comin'.

20x12 rear wheels?! Yeeeeeeees! What size tire might I ask?
Thanks,
Hecht

[CamaroJesse]

Dude that things gonna be awesome!

[camaro2nv]

Thanks guys! Thanks Frank also! Just placed my order for the rear end! Woo Hoo
Tire sizes are
345/25/20
275/30/19

[Krazed]

Flush is ok. It's the H + F words combined that we disagree on!

Car is looking great! Can't wait to see more of it. and if I had to guess, I'd venture 335/25 tires but im just pulling those numbers out of my rear.

Edit: Damn I took too long! Guess they're 345's haha

Well got the call today. The shipping company called and said my "car frame" was ready for pickup. I ran down to the yard and they loaded it up. This baby is nice! Morrison did a heck of a job! A second shipment should follow soon. It will have the axles and gears.

[Motown 454]

Very nice. Thats some stout construction there.

[HILLBILLY68]

Nice, looks like it's going to be a dream car!
