The '69 is Northbound...

It was sad to see the '69 leave today, but I'm ready to build some more projects now. This one is moving to Indiana, a car collector purchased it.

bye bye: https://ls1tech.com/69Camaro/loading23.jpg

I've already got a few convertible 1st gens to check out. The next one will be even better

Too many ideas of cars to build, not enough garage space or $$$ to keep all of them. I sell them to fund the next projects. Some people take years to build their dream car and they keep it. I just enjoy building them and moving on to the next project

26 photos. Those were mainly for the new owner, to show the condition of the car as it was loaded. Just in case any damage occurs during transport.

The red one will always be special since it was my first magazine car, but I have no doubts the upcoming ones will meet or exceed the coverage this one got. I'm thinking twin turbo LS2, 6-speed, mini-tubs, Corvette front suspension, custom leather interior, etc... Probably black or charcoal gray metallic.

metallic black would be sweet. The new GTO is also metallic black. Metallics show off the body lines much nicer than non-metallic paint. I'm thinking more along the lines of Spiral Gray Metallic, like the '04 Vettes had.
