New guy from Oregon

End goal of the car would be to have a nice cruiser that handles well with tons of power. Would like to be able to drive it for 300 miles comfortably and also maybe head to a auto-x event once a year or so just to have some fun. Car will probably get driven about 3000 miles per year. I figure over the next couple of years I am hoping to have about 15-20k to invest into it. I was hoping to find a guy here in Oregon that has some extensive build experience that I could lean on to review the current car status and find out where to go from there.

Obviously, I would love to go to LS power and a six speed in the future, but the current 396 and 4 speed have had a lot of money put into them so I will probably keep them for the time being, but would like to plan for an eventual swap, keeping that in mind with any upgrades I do now.

Other upgrades will be an RS grill assembly, New interior gauge assembly, etc. I am thinking the suspension and steering should come first, also thinking about a mini tub, but the $$$ add up quickly.

Apogee,

Saw you had a 73 Nova build going on, I also have a big bumper 73. Was my first car! I have thought of selling it to pay for the camaro build but can't bring myself to do it. I think my Nova actually handles way better than the 67 camaro right now, but that will change here in the near future. Good luck on the project!
