This is a build Me and my dad just got done with for a customer of ours and i took pics along the way and wanted to share. We pretty much rebuilt the back end of this car lol.. all new sheet metal from Goodmark.

It looked ok from 20 feet away when we first got it but when you got close to it you could see that rust was coming through all over the back end of the car. And anyone who knows about rust knows its like cancer and if you dont get rid of it all the way it comes right back. Any who enjoy!!!

This first set of pics is after we rough cut to see what we were dealing with.

iv got lots more pictures of the build but wanted to give the basics. If you would like to see more let me know and ill post them up.

well the Owner is still deciding on what to put in it...for now we were doing the body/paint work till he knows what he wants.

Also the guy is buying the new Camaro and having us paint it the exact same Color...he wants matching cars :goodjob:

ya they can be a pretty big money pit. The paint job alone on this car was a little over 7k thats not including all the body work he had done.... then again...cant really call it body work lol we basically put together a new car for our customer. If you have the money to invest ( this guy has plenty lol ) then it really is a fun thing to do.

These pics show what a Brand new Boxed up 69 Camaro looks like lol Fresh from goodmak.
