[jimmythehand]

I posted in the introduction section as well, but thought i would repost here thinking i might get some more feedback on my build plan. idea is a bad ass daily driver that will never see a track, but still be able to flex when i need to. here are the parts that are currently planned. What do you think? all tips/tricks/advice from are welcomed. Feels good to finally post and to get started with my project. thanks in advance.

Engine: LSA
Transmission: 6L90e (possible shrifter paddles)
Chassis/suspension/brakes: SpeedTech Track Time (front/rear) with RideTech Shockwave and Willwood brakes
Vintage Air
Dakota Digital VHX gauges
Other body/interior design plans:
DSE mini tub
shaved handles/locks
electronic windows/locks/trunk
HID projector lights
"phantom" grille
lower valence with driving lights (driving lights eliminated from stock position in grill)
custom interior or Marquez design package
custom console extending all the way between rear seats with use of horseshoe shifter

Sounds like a solid game plan. I like everything but the shaved door handles.

It's hard to comment without knowing your overall budget, personal skill set, time frame and patience. There are a lot of folks who start really ambitious builds, only to be defeated by the astonishing level of detail, fabrication (even for "bolt-on" parts) and problem solving needed to complete one of these cars.

If this is your first build, you might consider something less ambitious, that could be on the road much sooner, so you can see if these old cars (and building these old cars) are for you.
