[astross89]

This will be a slow project due to money. I'm a 28 kid who used to do mini trucks and have switch over to the dark side. I'm working on a 68 camaro with airride. Just wanted to show some pics.

looking good! Any more progress?

[BBC71Nova]

Looks good. I especially like what you did with the OEM subframe. Did you cut strips for the low side of the overlap and then weld/grind it smooth? Looks really good.

Hi AstroSS89,

Love the airbag setup on the Camaro, How is the car coming? any progress?

Just wondering what Shockwave you are using in the front? any chance of a part number?

Thanks,

Steve...
