Here is another car rolling out the door and I have to say it came out very good for a complete frame off rebuild. We had to replace over 90% of the sheetmetal on this car with Goodmark Body parts and they fit awesome. New Floor, trunk, rear inner and outer quarters, doors, inner and outer fenders, SS cowl hood, core support and bumpers. Most of the interior was replace with Year One parts and let me tell you they fit awesome as well.

GM Performance fuelinjected 454 with a 4L85E Transmission and a bolt in Currie rear end. Hotchkis lowered suspensions, Bear brakes, Budnik wheels with BFG tires, Drive Shaft shop drive line, Vintage Air front runner and AC system, Dakota Digital gauges, full leather interior, Optima Battery, Compustar alarm, BASF paint, Dynamat

Check it out and I will post some build shots of it soon to show you the mess we started with

I have to say, that may be the first car I have ever thought Dakota Digital gauges look good in.

I actually have a set from a 64 that we are looking at now so they are in the works. I would like to do them faster but its so much work to design and build them.

Is that a New tire from BFG? I don't recognize the tread design?

that's great news for me, please keep me in the loop. I think the 69 Camaro version would work other than the top piece that bolts to the hood. The stock hinges I have here have the same fender bolt pattern, and hinge points as my Chevelle. I just need the horizontal shock like yours has to clear the inner fenderwell.

Back on track, beautiful car and congrats!

The alarm is a Compustar and they kick ass, the are one of the best alarms we have ever used and the features are great. They will let you unlock the doors if you are shaved and lock your keys in the car with a code you tap on the window. We use them in everything
