Default My '68 Camaro build-up

Been working on my '68 for over 4 years now and heres a buil-up process of getting it put together:

My 1968 Camaro Build-up

I attached a photo of how it looks now, still alot more to do like finishing the dynamat and doing the whole interior expect seats which have been re-done already. Also going to install some new rear leaf springs and a 4 wheel disk brake kit w/ cross drilled rotors to start going with the pro-touring look...

Nice build. Would love to see some pics of where you dumped the exhaust. Trying to get some ideas for my 69 project.

Yes it has but of course there is still work to be done. I have to finish up the whole interior, stereo and new disk brakes front and rear then hopefully after a wheel and tire change it should be just about done by then

Thank you Jenrich69. I will work on trying to get a pic of the exhaust for ya. I did it dumped right before the rear axle with the turndowns turned slightly outwards so to allow the exhaust to leave the underside of the car instead of staying there and causing too much smell inside. Turned out great my exhaust guy recommended turning them slightly outward and man with those 2 chamber flowmasters it IS LOUD!!!
