Default 1968 All Wheel Drive Camaro named "SSAWD"

I wanted to share our latest Project named "SSAWD"
It is a 1968 Camaro that we ssawd in half and added a 2010 Camaro rear clip, then we ssawd the roof of and made it a full time
Roadster convertible. next we we ssawd the front valance off and sectioned it so we can Fit the Large Procharger Intercooler in there.
Then we ssawd the floor out and channeled the body over a custom frame 5 Inches. Built a customer floor pan moved the front seats back
11 inches and made it a 2 seater pulled the steering column and pedals back 5 inches, layed back a custom windshield 6 inches,
We built a custom tonno cover with speedster humps, LSX 376 F1 Procharger,
Narrowed and mini tubbed rear end, Wide Body and ground effects kit, Oh yea Did I tell you
it will be ALL WHEEL DRIVE as well. Bowler Performance 4L70E custom Transmission, Narrow 14 bolt rear end, Forgeline custom wheels,Toyo tires, Holley EFI Dominator EFI system, Air tech shock waves,
I am using a Trail Blazer SS front drive system for the AWD.
Get the name now.
"SSAWD" look for it soon I will keep you all posted. I have the complete build up at my website. customshop.org if you want to check it out
Still have a few things to work out but it should be pretty bad......

Here is the only shots I can find right now of the front susp.
I used the TBSS front transfer case it runs the front axle thur the
Oil pan( Yes right thur it). . the front center section mounts on the right side of the oil pan ad has a set of half shaft that run out tot he front hubs.
bolted right up to the LSX 376 motor Pace Performance engine gave me the best price if anyone is looking for a crate motor good guys over there.
I am thinking about doing a paddle shifter on it??

Pretty cool what you've done there. I've seen those systems on TBSS and out on the ground too. Should be fun to drive.

I saw the car in person at the Muscle Car show in Rosemont ( suburb of Chicago) It is a killer car and the craftsmanship that went into this is unbelievable. Super nice guy to talk to, along with his father and son also. Thanks again for letting my son play XBox with your kid in the back of the truck.

DAMN!!!! That is some car building skill. I would have never guessed it was a 68 camaro though.
