Default 69 rebuild

Well after 30 years I found a 69 Camaro to rebuild. I have owned a 68,69 and 70 and sold them all for a song 30 years ago. now with 2 boys 14 and 12, and a girl 10 . It is time to do a family restoration project. The 69 I bought is primer gray and has been stripped to be rebuilt. the person who owned it had medical issues and could not finish it .His loss my gain. Very nice guy who also threw in a 1979 Camaro that needed a radiator. 3 engines and 3 tranny's. I have decided to change out the 10 bolt rear end and the SB for either a 12 bolt or a ford 9 bolt and a 454. Being new to the rebuild arena I will be asking a lot of questions and any input is greatly welcome. pictures will be following

Sounds like a good project. Good luck with it.
Re the 9" vs. 12 bolt, stick with Chevy stuff.

Welcome to the Club
Congrats on the buy and reads you gotten more than asked.
Agree with Arocars, stay with 12-bolt - less power to turn and fitment can be made easier.
