The 2nd gen 71 Camaro build from a little bit ago, hard to describe a build like this.

There's plenty I'm forgetting I did on this build but I also have to give credit due to the folks that did what I couldn't. Jeff Farr for knocking the stainless exhaust out of the park, Jarrett Prickett for laser engraving the radio delete plate, Jacob Steder for welding the aluminum fuel cell brackets, Stateline Koatings for all the beautiful powder coat work, TopStitch for the custom made shifter boot, headliner and package tray as they are the best upholstery shop around, Midcoast Customs for the wrap, Nerp Tech for bending and adding some rollcage bars, and Miles Glass for the front and rear glass install.
