New guy from Ft. Lauderdale.
Just wanted to introduce myself. I bought a 1971 Chevelle from ebay and I got scammed so bad. It started out as a little project for me which has snowballed into an all out frame off build. I've got a 468 going in it, March serpentine system, 700R4, 12 bolt, custom paint, 22"/20" billet wheels, air ride Suspension with Shockwaves and Hotchkis sway bars, Willwood brakes front and rear, Retrotek pushbutton shifter etc.... What the hell have I gotten myself into? I will post some pics tomorrow of when I started. Should be done in about a month. Was hoping to make it to the Turkey Rod Run but not sure if I will make it. Wish me luck

Don't let the before pictures fool you, the car did not look that good in person. Paint was nasty. Car was in bad shape.

Welcome and good luck on your project. Just look at it like getting scammed only prompted you to do the right thing and build it better.
