Nice to see another one being brought back from the edge. I love the 67 and will be watching this build thread. What do you have in mind for upgrades?

Welcome to LG by the way.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Right now im not sure on motor and trans it has a 350 and a power glide trans. I do know i want an upgraded suspension and want to tub it out. As far as I can tell right now it needs sheet metal(full quater pannels,roof,rear end,front end,door skins,hood.)

Are you planning to make it into a #'s matching garage/trailer queen or street/track monster? Who cares about numbers or tired old 80hp motor.

Probably best to take it off. Here's mine just before media blasting http://www.lateral-g.net/forums/showthread.php4?t=29820. My son's '67 Camaro :thumbsup: was prepared the same way.
