      Project LSxChevelle (2nd try)

      Well I bought a 70 about 2 months ago for $1,000. Original A/C car with power front disc, buckets, auto console and the owner swapped a 12 bolt in unknowingly (to fix his broke 10 bolt). Car was too rough for me....needed both quarters, inner qtrs, trunk filler panel, rear tail panel, all new front. I bought a title with parts!

      I was in it $1,150 and sold car for $800 (-$350) but....
      $300 for 12 bolt to 10 bolt swap with uncle
      $300 for buckets
      Still have console for sale...

      Ok...didn't lose $$

      So this weekend I bought a 72 (have to swap clip!) but I was able to drive it home for $3900. (came with an original SS hood too)

      Short term plan:
      Swap clip to 'make it a 70' and get body straight in primer with 70 bumpers (gloss black including headlight trim rings)
      Have a 5.3 with good crank so I am going to get a stock set of rod/pistons, cam, good used LS6 heads, and a carb setup

      Long term:
      Drivetrain/suspension-
      408CI LS
      Positive atmospheric pressure via Whipple 4.0L (considering other options including TT)
      T56
      Art Morrison GT-Sport chassis
      Kore3 C6 Z06 front brake kit for C6 hub
      Kore3 C6 Z06 rear brake kit w/ parking brake for 9"

      Appearance/Interior-
      Anvil carbon hood (painted with some revealed)
      Black or body colored bumpers
      Carbon diffuser
      Carbon front lip
      Shaved drip rails
      5th Gen Camaro seats? Front/Rear
      SS Dash wrapped w/ matching fabric
      Autometer gauges and built in touchscreen (linked to car pc and audio system)
