Started this rebuild back in feb 2016.

We don't manufacture anything like that here. Would have been made in America.Quote:

69 camaro limited slip diff will get recon an axle c-clip delete.
Body off chassis and dropped off at mates to get holes in firewall filled.
Its crazy how some of these rides are getting! Looks more like a complete redo than a refresh:)
