Here is my Project 68 Camaro. I bought it 6 years ago from my High school Auto Shop. I paid $150 for the Car and it was in the same shape as the Pictures below. I just recently started working on the car. Well i've just been gathering a bunch of parts that I need. I will be having the car media blasted and all of the body work done in a few months, including those horrible fender flares in the rear!. I plan on running a 383 stroker engine with about 450hp, a 400 tranny with a shift kit, ford 9 inch rear end, Prodigy Customs G-bar rear suspension with coilovers front and rear, tubular upper and lower a-arms, and a few other Pro touring goodies. hope you guys enjoy watching my build just as much as I enjoy building the Car.

Bolted up some 20" Irocs to see how she sat, should sit a lot lower once the engine and tranny is installed. Will be also adding a 2" drop in the front and a 1.5" in the rear once the Hotchkis setup is installed!

These rear flare are killing me but I should have them off shortly. I already have the new quarters, once "Brown Sugar" is out of the paint booth, I will be getting all of the body work done on the maro.

I have the rear spoiler ready to be bolted on, and will be ordering some very nice looking billet tail lights, side marker light bezels, and gas cap to give the rear end a whole new more modern look.

Spectre Air Cleaner

 Just picked up this Spectre 4" Air Cleaner, I plan on adding more piping to it later and having all the polished pieces, not including the clamps, powdercoated to match the black on the plenum
