I had to move and reorganize photobucket so I lost a lot of pitures on the thread but if anyone remembers...

Finaly got it back from the body shop and below is the final paint. I will be changing out the rims at some point and getting a good stance for the car but for now it's good enough. Still have to put the interior in.

Actually, I put a Big Block 396 bored out to a 406 in it with the 350 trans and 3.42 gears for the street.

Very nice! I was just in the garage working on my 68 Camaro.. I have a tuned port injected small block 400 thats bored and stroked. I never drive it and as a result, one of the injectors stuck requiring a major pain in the a$$ overhaul of the fuel injection system... Fortunately, I am in the final process of putting it back together. Its in need of a detail but that will come in short order.

I decided to take a break and check out THT when I came across your thread. Let see some more pics!!
