man this whole ordeal has taken a couple months.....I basically cleaned, sealed, and undercoated the whole bottom of the blown 67 (still got a little more to do as you can see in the wheel wells), and also did a couple minor rust patches in the wheel wells(can't even tell they had been worked). The rest of the car is all original steel and in very good shape. I painted the firewall, and had the front frame and everything on the front of the car powdercoated. So now I can start to install the new rearend, engine, and I pick up my trans from mike ridings next week!! finally it feels good to go from taking it apart and cleaning to finally assembling the thing. The pictures make it look kinda crappy, but it is nice a clean looking now.

here is it the day I first bought it, the engine was a disaster and ended up coming out shortly after. You can see the salt on it from when I drove it home in the winter. It also had the stupid tunnel ram on it and the rest of the car was mostly stock....so since I already had the hole in the hood...naturally the next step was the blower....

Very Nice!

I think it's pro-touring, as it represents what was being done to Camaros in the early stages of PT. Now it's called a resto mod by some or not stock by people if you show it.

I would not worry about it being PT, RM or NSTK I would just drive the crap out of it until you break something, fix it and have some more fun!!

New term.....PRO-FUN or I put it......daily driver.

BTW I have a 67 Camaro and wing windows rule!!! I am doing the same sort of thing your doing......what ever the hell I want!!!

I think you should post it in Pro-Street and see what comments come there as well.The suspension is there,I would think the motor would not be considered Pro-Touring unless it could be started with an automatic car starter and can be driven 200 miles or more,and you will need 17" to 20" at the tallest if you dont have them.If you put 15" Pro-Stars on it and a 6 point cage it may be Pro-street.This is a Pro-Street guys opinion and I am sure it wont be right but hey...Any it doesn't matter as long as you like it and the way it drives this is all that matters.I like it so far keep us posted on the progress.
