New Guy from Warren County
Hey everyone. Been lurking here for a few months now and wanted to drop a line to say hi. I have a restored 67 Camaro that I'm SLOWLY converting into a Pro Touring car. I'm looking forward to getting help from the more experienced veterans.

I grew up in Morris County, Landing, so we should have just switched houses.
Some current pics attached.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys. 
My near future goals are to replace the marshmallow body mounts with delum, install some tubular A arms, new spindles and disc brakes at all four corners, followed by some new shoes.
I currently have a rebuilt 327 bored .030 over with a thumper cam, performer manifold, Holley 650 CFM, with Headman headers, running through a powerglide to a 10 bolt. I think I'm getting close enough with HP to detonate the 10 bold so..... in the distant future I'd like to replace the 327 with and LS series, 5 speed, and Strange rear. Then again at the rate gas is climbing I'm sure someone in the restomod field will develop an electric for our toys. I guess it will sound like we're racing Dewalt's finest.

GW solid body mounts are nice (however not delrin). I've got those & GW del-a-lum LCA bushings in the 77.

Gents - Once again thanks for the warm welcome. I'm sure it is only a matter of time before I start picking your brains for some how too's and become a PITA. 
I posted for the car of the month and you guys have some nice rides too so I can see this isn't gonna be easy. If you happen to find yourself at the F body nationals at Island Dragwagy please say hi and drop a vote for my car. The new guy wants the world.
