After going over the car, I decided to tear it down and start over. Over the years I have built and restored several cars, but always wanted a 69 Camaro. I am building this car to keep and doing all the things I wish I would have on my other projects.

Overall the car was is pretty good shape for being 39 years old, but it had some rust, dings and had been in a few accidents. The stock front sub-frame was bent and the front clip was a mix of original and repo parts. The alignment of the sheetmetal was terrible and the rear quarters were full of plastic.

Basically I want a car with lots of horsepower that I can drive and beat without it breaking a part. Along with more HP, comes a new suspension, steering, bigger breaks and a bullet proof rear.

Engine:
I have not decided on what engine I will go with, but I am leaning towards the GM Performance Parts Crate ZZ 502 engine or the Ram Jet 502.

I am leaning towards the TCI Transmissions Street Fighter Turbo 400
