1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS tribute Description

Up for grabs is my 67 Chevy Camaro RS tribute project. I will try my best to list everything but I'm sure I'll leave something out.
Original Camaro saved from GM Sports Salvage 14 years ago. Needed some serious help, so...I completely stripped it down to the inner skeleton, media blasted everything, and had it put back together with-
New passenger RH rear frame rail
New full length floor pans
New 5 pc. Trunk floor
New inner and outer wheel houses
New quarter panels with sails
New roof (yep- it actually had a rip through it like it had been attacked by a Pterodactyl!)
New rear valance- inner and outer
New trunk lid and gutters
New drip rails New inner and outer rocker panels
New fenders, inner fenders, front valance, lower valance, and dash top
All welding and body work professionally done by Westside Auto Body
2 inch cowl induction hood...which eventually would not clear the beast motor within...so custom mods made for clearance as one of a kind forced air breathe through all metal integrated into raised cowl
Front subframe media blasted, metal etched, epoxy primed, and urethane
Same treatment to upper and lower a arms, and all new bushings and hardware installed
All new steering components and front suspension, including drag links, center link, inner and outer tie rods, springs, etc.
All new body bushings, hardware, and radiator support
Underbody coating to complete undercarriage, as well as top of floor pans
Trunk interior coated
Ready for final guide coat sanding and paint of your choosing!
The Motor
Originally a gen. 4 454, but now 489 stroker
Completely machined block- tanked, magnafluxed, bored .030. Over, plate honed, align bored, decked .010, and fitted with...
Scat internal balance knife edged crank 4.250 stroke
ARP main bolts- four bolt mains

I wanted to SOMEWHAT maintain nostalgia, so Edelbrock endurashine RPM air gap dual quad manifold

4 speed big block transmission crossmember
Some misc. Interior trim pcs
Some headlight parts and pcs., RS
Oh yea...new rear springs, perches, bushings, hardware, already installed
Oh yea again...added Competition Engineering subframe connectors and entire car was laser straightened
See? I keep remembering things you might want to know...this car does have a clear title, currently registered, and is a factory v8, floor shift, factory center console car!!!
As I said...I'm absolutely sure I've forgotten things, but whatever is here that is for that car...goes with the car.
After years of trying to find the time to complete this and other projects, I've made certain what-i-want-for-the-future decisions and am selling THEM ALL!!!
I have invested over a dozen years and over 40 thousand dollars in this project, as it had deep sentimental value to me to save. We all know I will NEVER see that time or that money again, but I have no idea what it's value really is. I would like to see $14,500, but we all would like to see things, so I'll just take your offers over the next ten days, and the highest one wins!
If you have any questions, drop me a text and I'll do my best to get you what you need.
Thanks for reading, and good luck!!
This is also for sale locally, so I reserve the right to cancel this listing if it sells

I will say this- the reserve is set at thousands less than the $14,500 I would like to see it fetch, as listed in the description. Again, good luck😊
