Default My 1968 Camaro

I have been a member of Lat.-G for a few years now and never posted a picture or description of my car. I have owned it for 7 years and slowly been building it to my liking. When I bought it, it was cobbled together, sheet rock screws holding grill in, stop sign welded in on floorboard,etc.
Well I am getting it done slowly (very expensive hooby).
It has a ZZ4 crate, Tremec T-56, Baer brakes on all 4, SpeedTech Torque Arm, Global West upper and lower control arms, Intro wheels and just bought all new Autometer Ultalight II's.
I plan on an LS-3 with SpeedTech front end and D.S. mini-tubbs hopefully sooner than later. This is a great website and full of useful info, I can't go a day without getting on it!

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

Welcome to the site Kevin and looks like you have a good project going. I already talked to Kevin about the gauge options in the past. So, you went after the Ultra II's. So do you have idea where to put the LED's? The problem with the plastic dash is there no way to mount it securely. I have tried it, with my Autometer Ultra Lite gauges in the past. New Vintage sells these, http://www.newvintageusa.com/panels.html.

Ummm, I never had a project thread, and I have been here since 2005. So don't feel bad about the project being slow. My project officially started in late 2004, but I was buying parts as early as 2002. I just used my Kodakgallery site in the past, which allowed me to shoot at the highest megapixel, but Kodak would reduce the file size for me. I could put in comments, and it was rather easy. I just leave a link and people could view the photos.
