After 8-1/2 years it's finally finished! Been a long journey but I can finally enjoy it now. Sorry for the poor photos. I'll get some good ones in better lighting.

So just a quick summary......
1968 Camaro
Color: Electric Currant Red
Engine: 2008 6.0L LS, L92 heads, LS3 intake, Cam (226/234 .612"/.629" 112 LSA), 98-02 F-Body accessories....417rwhp
Transmission: Custom built 4L65E with B&M transmission cooler
Wheels: Forgeline SO3's brushed/cleared centers, polished outers
Front 18x8's with 245/40/18 BFG's
Rear 18x11.5 with 335/30/18's BFG's
Suspension: Rear - Chris Alstons G-Link
Front - Stock subframe with Chicane coil over conversion
Rear End: Moser narrowed 12 Bolt with 3.73's
Brakes: 13" Track series front and rear
Interior: Stock
Body: DSE Tubs
DSE subframe connectors
New floor, trunk, quarters, roof skin, tail panel
Misc: Vintage Air Gen IV
Stainless Works Headers
Flowmaster 2-1/2" 40 series mufflers
Retrosound Radio
Performance Rod & Custom radiator with twin electric fans

....In a nut shell, it's all brand new, including every nut and bolt.

The only thing left is to rename it. "ITDORUN" was the old license plate I had on it 23 years ago when I was 15 and it's time to retire it.

Wow that looks great - pro touring done right. It looks absolutely stock/vintage, and yet sits on the big tires perfectly. No extra doodads, vents, wings, excellent paint and all the correct looking trim.

Then combined with a natty engine compartment, and a stock like interior complete with the non-T handle shifter.

I'm bored to death of early Camaros (and am a Ford fan to boot) but I just wanted to say you really did well with this car. HOpe it drives as good as it looks !

Very clean! Great build. My first car was a 67 Camaro. It was an inline 6 when I got it. After putting in a 327 from a Vette the license plate was "LAUGHNOW".

Very nice. Like the restomod look as I am sick and tired of the "black" look and dingy paint colors and late model looking interior with iPod or something stuck in the middle of the dash. You can't beat a classic look. Nice

Weather hasn't been favorable the last couple of weeks but this weekend looks promising. I'll get some this weekend. Polished wheels and paint this past weekend so it's photo worthy!

Long time no talk chris! I am glad to see you finally got around to finishing this car up. I have followed your entire build and I must say it has been incredibly impressive. Great looking car!
