A little about the car. I sold a 68 Camaro convertible on ebay and a week later bought a 69 hardtop project on ebay. I was planning on just building it like my 68 with some average pro touring stuff like big brakes and wheels and a good stance and leave it at that. I think I have a problem with sticking to my plans on cars because every time I start a project it always goes way past what I intended. This car is probably the worst yet as far as that goes. I basically called DSE and had them pretty much send me everything they sell. Took the car to a local fabricator to have the mini tubs and suspension installed and as the car was there I came across the LS7 deal that I couldn't pass up.
