Jay Young's 1968 SS Camaro Project

390 in my 49 I caught the fever of automobile restoration when I was in High School.   My first project was a 1949 Ford short bed truck. Camaro

Thanks to River City Rod and Custom I'm about to get rid of some rusty floor pans.

  Now that I'm having my mid-life crisis, I thought it would be fun for my son, Calvin and I to work on a project together.  We decided that a 60's muscle car would be fun to bring back to life.  We found a 1968 SS Camaro that looked like it needed a lot of love.  The following is a photo journal of our project.
