Default New Guy on the block

Been around for a pretty good while.. Used to build street rods back in the late '70's.. Had a couple of Camaro's back then.. '67 w/454,, '69 w/427.. and a few other builds.
Now i'm looking at building a 1981 Z28 very mild Pro Tour street car kind of thing. Hopefully I can pick y'all's brain on stuff.. it's been a long time since I've built anything so it'll be like going back to school

Welcome aboard .It sounds like you have had some "fun" cars. I have a 1979 Z-28 RS Pro-Touring car. Mines a little extreme .But I can help you with yours. Since mine started out like that.And I just got carried away.
