Hey guys, building a car for a soldier in Iraq
I posted this up in the new member section, but thought I'd post this here too.
We're building a 68 Camaro for my brother-in-law who is currently in Iraq. We recieved a bunch of donations and purchased a car. We've also received a ton of parts from various individuals and businesses and are on our way to building a hell of a car. If you are interested in following the project, please visit our website at http://www.patriotdream.org and follow along or find out how you can help! So the project is to turn this:  Into this:  Before Shawn gets home in July of 08!

Custom show plate and cowl hood panel donated by Undercover Innovations. These things are NICE! They're gonna look great on the car. Pardon the terrible pictures, I am in the process of reorganizing and laying new floor down in the shop for the arrival of the Camaro and it is a mess in there!
  and some LS6 springs and LS1 injectors I purchased off of LS1tech.com

Just got back from the TA Nationals, so I haven't had a chance to get the 2" cowl hood that Firewheel Classics donated home yet, it's in my office at work.
But I did get a LS1 master cylinder from a good friend of mine.

Got some new parts in! Thanks to WS6 on the pro-touring board for donating this LS1 valley pan!
 And thanks to Gail Day Automotive Memorabilia for donating this T56 6-spd shift ball!  And we also recieved this blue LED Raptor shift light donated by R&D Speed!  I also just got back from AutoFair yesterday. I took a bunch of flyers and handed out about 50 to different vendors and told them what I was doing. Most of them seemed very interested, and all listened to me, so that was cool! I got the shift ball from a vendor, hopefully we get some more from it as everyone gets back home from the show!
