Within the next few months I will document my 62 resto build. Certain part of the build was started a few months back and will try to catch up. then it will slow down.This build will be done by me mostly, I will be using a Billy Dawson Frame from corvette correction in Seguin, Texas, LS2/6speed powertrain.






Arrives from from Michigan.

Watching fellow forum members document their builds has got to be one of my favorite aspects of the Forum. Right behind the enormous wealth of knowledge that's shared on here.

Any ideas on color?

Take plenty of pictures!

I looked at all the others and for me, Billys frame was the one. I'm not saying there's anything wrongs with the others.
