"Blood Sucker" build 68 r/s camaro
A little about the build name and car. My brother bought this car several yrs ago to restore and lost interest since he had a 64 1/2 mustang that he had pro restored and felt like this was the only way he would have the camaro done, he didn't want to spend the money on the camaro. So he offered me the r/s camaro for very cheap since he knew I would do something with it. Now for the name "blood sucker", from the moment I got down to louisana to p/u car I cut myself pulling the tin off the barn it was in and also loading the car. Before I even got home(4hrs away) I was ordering body parts I knew I needed. I've been taking pics as I've done work on the car and will post some. Every time I work on the car it seems I get a cut on me, so I felt this car likes the taste of blood. So I felt the name fit the build of the car "Blood Sucker". Now this build will be a low budget build

the guys in the pics are my brother(white shirt) and my son. My son seems a little interested in this project as well, I sure hope so, since he's 16 and maybe I can teach he a few things along the way. He already likes welding so I'll oversee he on some the metal/welding work this project will require.

plans are a full body restoration, dse tubs, 3 or 4 link(haven't decided), front stock sub redone w/new control arms/coilovers, 4-wheel disc brake setup, ls1/6spd setup. I plan to be driving car by summer or 2010 and finished by Jan 2011(will see). I'll also plan to attend some of the events with it
