[SSRS]

Hi!

I'll start writing a bit about my project, it's a Camaro -69 SS/RS that I have owned since I was 18 (now 25).

There is too much to write about what I have done over the years but here are some pictures and a list of some of the things I've done / are doing this year.
Rear suspension / chassis:
3-link (home-built)
Coilovers (Koni double adjustable with Eibach springs)
Watts (home built)
Rear brakes (Wilwood four-piston calipers and discs)
Subframe connectors (Hotchkis)

Front Suspension:
Disc brakes front (C6 Z06 six-piston calipers 14" discs)
Spindle (ATS AFX)
Upper A-arm (Speed ​​Tech)
Shock absorber (Koni)

Steering:
Box (ATS, Lee 670 12.7:1)
Pump (Lee TC with cooling)

Rims / Tires:
Front
CCW SP510 18" * 8.5"
Toyo R888 245 18"
Rear
CCW SP510 18" * 11"
Toyo R888 315 18"

Interior:
Split rear seat from a -71 Camaro
3-point seat belt for child seat (highest priority;) I got a daughter 5 months ago)

Exhaust system:
Finally welded, was made in 2009 with homemade x-pipe and Borla dampers.

Koni double adjustable coilovers


Propeller for Watts link (Thanks Jim @ Fays2)


Some pictures of the rear inner fenders that will be widened a bit to make room for 315 tires.





The exhaust system



Tested with my sister's 315 tires from her Mustang, seems to fit OK.

Wheels and brakes

Old and new brakes


Spindles and A-arms



Parts for 3-link that has been TIG welded and powder coated

Testing to mount rear suspension








Hard to keep order in such a crowded garage, but it works! (Changes the air suspension system on my dads Cadillac dad too )



If you're wondering why I am replacing my old rims, now you know why...

Thanks!

I could try the Koni's on for the first time yesterday. Some minor adjustments left untill they are perfect in place. And yes, I know that the quality is bad, I'll try getting a better camera then in my phone...
