'67 project pics

Here are some shots of the poor '67 rs trapped in my garage. As promised this year it will be running. I am at the point where it can get fun (and expensive) setting it up. I could use all the advice that you good people are willing to give.

Right now, its got a nice 350/350 hp out of my 69ss/rs. The internals are all new even though the outside looks like a dog. Shiny stuff comes next. (note the hooker super comps). The front suspension is all new ( I am willing to remove and upgrade) I have a '67 convertible that will get all the NOS components. Up front I installed a disk spindles from a Nova. The brakes are brand new but stock(gotta go, right?)

The interior will be redone. I like what I have seen on this site with upgraded seats, consoles etc....

The body is all new GM steel and it is pin straight. It is good to have a brother in law who owns a body shop!!!! The finish (which looks horrible right now) is a chromabase blue with heavy amounts of pearling ( it looks like three different colors depending on your angle and the light).

Here's the deal: I want to set the car up right while not going broke. I want to lower the front and rear of the car first. What are my options? The rear is a leftover from this car's days at the dragstrip. I am pretty sure that the traction bars can go. the next is the wheels. These are cool for the convertible, not this car. (too small). what can I stuff in the fenderwells without having to break out the plasma cutter.

Please help!!!!

Thanks, '67 kato

Kato (if that's your real name), welcome to the site.

You'd probably be better off breaking out your questions and putting them in the appropriate sections (if the search doesn't give the information you were looking for) - the "welcome to the board" forum doesn't get the kind of traffic the other forums do.

Again, welcome to the site.
