View Full Version : Project "PullingOut" 69 Camaro

Where to start…This is my first true build. I bought the car sight unseen from Ebay. The owner did NOT know his wife posted it for sale with a phone number to call and after 30 minutes of convincing him he needed to sell it, it was mine. I bought it within 30 minutes of it being posted for sale with no buy it now. The car was almost rust free except for a small marble size hole in the rear window channel. It was an original vinyl top car as well. All original panels except for the front sheet metal and a small patch panel on the left quarter panel that was done years ago. The car was being worked on by a shop 1,000 miles away from home and NOT to my standards. I pulled my car out of the shop just before any real damage/work could be done hence the project name “Pulling Out.” Pulling Out is always the best option in life if you have any doubts. :lmao: When it was time to pick the shop to take over my build there was no doubt in my mind, I was taking it to American Muscle Restoration in Cleveland,TN. John is very meticulous about his cars and takes the same care with his customers cars. John has been on budget throughout the process and on time as well. I could talk on and on about the work they do but I will let the pictures speak for themselves…

John wasted NO time getting to work on the car, after the game plan was established. No crazy body mods just side marker delete and a little massaging here and there. The car was "put together" by the previous shop and it was John and I's decision to take it apart and make sure nothing was overlooked.

Thanks. When I bought the car the previous owner had already purchased a complete Orange houndstooth interior, seat covers already installed and everything. I may go custom leather if there is any $ left over but if not the houndstooth is going in.

At the very least, I'd put the orange pieces in the car before making the decision. I think it would look good but it may be too much orange once it's in the car. Anyway, carry on. John and his guys obviously aren't fooling around.

Trey, I worry the orange will be too much as well. I will definitely put the pieces in there and post some pics for opinions. I also do not want the car to feel like it is a Halloween theme with the black/orange.

Well, it has been awhile since an update due to the fact of missing parts. When I pulled my car out of the previous shop I was told that all the parts were packed in the car and they were NOT, I should have pulled the parts out and checked before I took the car, Lesson learned. I have since made two more major purchases through MCB for needed parts before progress could continue. Matt and Kim have been great!!! Here are a couple pics...more to come later in the week.

Scott, I am pretty excited about this 55. Coming up with a plan will be half the fun. I think an aftermarket chassis will be out of the budget but would be sweet if I could afford it. The 55 is a 1 family owned car that has been in Texas its entire life. Been stored inside since 1969 when the elderly owner lost her license. Original everything. Will need trunk and floor pans but that is it for rust.

My car has been coming along nicely but taking time due to parts missing/needed. MCB has been great at getting the parts I need fast and cheap. Now we are waiting for more parts. Going with the DSE battery relocation kit and there master cylinder/booster combo.

The shop has been kicking A$$ on my car. All the fuel and brake lines are ran and the fenders are on. It will be ready to fire shortly after the install of some sensors.

Thanks! No real updates(Pictures). My car is at the interior shop and they are fabricating the console, door panels, package tray, trunk panels and modifying the seats this week. Should have some pictures by the end of next week of some interior fabrication....stay tuned.:popcorn2:

Love the way the wood looks in the interior..even if just base boards...bet it would look good left in there and stained or varnished

Yea, they are just boards that are getting covered. Staining them is a cool idea thou Justin.

Looking good! Those seat foams look like they will be comfortable.

Thanks Wayne! I am going to move the drivers seat back 3 inches to accommodate for my height.
