First, i didnt know where to put this feel free to move it.

Well, as mentioned earlier, my dad bought a 69 camaro SS and it needs alot of work. To the tune of new quarter panels, new floors, custom trunk floor, and smoothin out the body. so mainly, ill let the pics do the talking.

trunk floor, or lack therof :) also the 140 GPH fuel pump. 600+ horses get pretty thirsty :laughing:

its a half and half resto it needed new quarters on bolth sides. when we got it you couldent tell the quarters were just basically puddy untill we decided to get it repainted black again and have the stripes added

same with this one, we could see the rust, but there was filler and fiberglass near the doors, and spray foam in the rears :laughing: :thumbsdown: i think he (dad) wants to go with a dark red, like black cherry, or ruby red pearl. i dont think he wants stripes, being a true SS i would go for stripes, but its his car, his choice.

got alot more dont this weekend, Matt and i did a full 8 point roll cage. welded the passenger quarter panel on, and even started the bodywork on it. We also welded in kits, that allow the door bars to swing open and latch closed for ease of in and out (NHRA approved). Also installed the new Aeromotive high output carb fuel regulator 7-15 PSI so them poinies can quench all their thirst whenever, will post pics very soon! :laughing:
