The 69 grille is really cool. I have always wondered how much work it would be to do that?
Good work !

The front of that 68 is interesting do you have any more pics of it.
Looks like a 69 grill and a 70-73 front lower valance.

The lower valance is an inspired touch, well done!
What was involved in plugging in the '69 grille? Not sure if I would go that route, but it certainly is a departure from the norm. Bravo.

I just love this car. You definitely hit a homerun with the body mods. Not too over-the-top, like if you didn't know any better you'd swear it coulda come from the factory that way. Very well done, I'd be curious to know how many hours in body work alone this car has.
cam68
03-13-2008, 11:31 AM
I cant say how many hours i do body work.. many many hours.. I done hole car 4 years..
body mods (taillights and front) maybe do a one week..? 69:s grille is very slow put in rigt place:D front lover valance panel is peace of cake:rolleyes:

Hi I love the car. About the grill. What exaclty did you have to do to fit it into the car? You mention that you removed 5 inches. From what part of the grill did you remove 5 inches?
How did you get the headlights to fit?
Did you use a 68 or 69 header panel?

Is your rear axle finished or are you open to changing the width if need be?

Look at ebay for BMW wheels. The hard thing will be finding something with staggared widths....but BMW wheels will bolt up, I think a hubcentric ring is a good idea though. Others have done it and could answer questions you may have. But it's an affordable way to get there!
Not sure about the offset of the front wheels...I'm more of a back space guy!
Something like this (http://cgi.ebay.com/18x8-5-Sport-Max-006-Black-Wheel-Rim-s-5-120-5x120-18_W0QQitemZ160261442940QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_ Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item160261442940&_trksid=p4634.c0.m14)? and this (http://cgi.ebay.com/18x9-5-Sport-Max-006-Black-Wheel-Rim-s-5-120-5x120-18_W0QQitemZ170239733014QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_ Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item170239733014&_trksid=p4634.c0.m14)

Are you using a wider than stock rear axle? Normally you would want a 9.5" wheel with 5.5" b.s. (ET 6) on a first gen camaro?
