Hi All,
I was very fortunate to pick up a '69 Camaro that will be familiar to some of you.
It arrived a couple of weeks ago and is stunning in person. A big thanks to the builder and seller - wow.
It's still a bit chilly here, but I've had it out a few times.. quite a leap forward dynamically from my last '69.
She'll be included on fast fun-runs with friends and Dairy Queen runs with my wife and two little boys.
Hope to be a bit more active here moving forward.

Welcome! It's a fantastic car - and you got a great deal on it! I was busy on the phone discussing this car with another buddy -- trying to get Charlie to answer his phone so I could tell him it was "sold" -- and he was on the phone with you.... Too funny. My buddy missed a nice buy for sure.

Lol, yes.. I've never bought any car that fast.
I don't know the details of the wheel finish.. I've been meaning to drop Jack a message. If I can make contact, I'll ask.

Welcome to Lat-G!
Jack built a subtle and eloquent icon with Darkside, nice to see it will be used appropriately. :thumbsup:
