Next we have a 1971 z28. This will be kind of like a resto-mod with lsx 454, 6 speed, 4 linked 12 bolt etc. One of my favorite projects.

As clean as the 71 z28 looks there is actually alot to be done. It has some botched bodywork that is sure to rust if not fixed correctly. So the short list is rear quarters, rear inner wells, some floor work and he wants a smooth firewall.

I'm guessing the Z28 isn't a "budget build". Looks like it's gonna be fun to drive.
 
That's an interesting way you have set up the uppers. Do you have spherical joints on both ends to compensate for the binding
