Yet another 70 Camaro build. I am new to lateral g and decided I would share my build hoping that some might share some insight on the build. I am building the car to be a good driver with intentions of autocrossing it every once in awhile. I purchased the car a little over a year ago so quite a bit has been done already. The car will be getting a ls motor with a 6 speed, Detroit speed Quadralink, 12 bolt, global west control arms and custom works performance front coil over conversion and many other of the usual parts.

Here are some pictures of it bare and with sheet metal going back on I already had cut for the mini tubs at this point once it got home I finished them up and its time for the Quadralink and mocking up the front suspension and motor and transmission.

Nice! Was it hard to find the quarters and other NOS parts? I don't have to ask if they were expensive.

It actually wasn't hard to find one of my dads friends had the driver quarter and tail light panel and I found the passenger quarter locally on ebay.

I liked the Detroit Speed firewall panel but didn't like the recess in it for the downward bars so I decided to make my own don't think it turned out to bad still got to body work it.

Got the minitubs done and the Detroit Speed Quadralink installed in the car.

Got the 12 bolt housing still can't believe I cut up a 69 Camaro 12 bolt.

Here is it with all of the brackets tig welded on
