Title: Planned Gen One Restomod
Post by: GenOne-2014SS on January 10, 2015, 07:05:46 PM

Getting ready to do a Gen One restomod and while doing my research, I stumbled onto this site - very cool, lots of good info.

Did search on an "LS conversion" and didn't find any results - searched the entire forum.  "LS" and "conversion" produces many unrelated results, so the results are numerous and tedious.

Anyone done a Gen 5 to Gen 1 driveline conversion.  Hope to actually move the entire dash, wiring, suspension, brakes and driveline from a very young, but wrecked 2014 SS Camaro I got on a Copart auction.

Looking for some tips.  The dash is probably the biggest hurdle followed by the suspension.

Also, looking for the 68 or 69 Gen 1.

Appreciate your thoughts,

Nick
