Hey guys. My name is Jeff and I live in Santa Rosa, ca. I have been wanting to build a GL car now for a while. It will be my daily driver and I think I have some good ideas for the build. I will try and post up a build thread of the build and take LOTS of pics. I hope to drive the car for the first time in a couple weeks to Bug O. This website has tons of info and I look forward to spending some time on here !!

Well I have to admit that I am a drag racer at heart and that is what I love. But I wanted to build a nice daily driver that looks good, rides well, handles well, stops well, and moves well. I decided to start with for the most all origal 1969 two owner black plate california car. I would like to lower the car with 4 wheel disc brakes, 17" porsche wheels, KYB Gr2's all the way around. Custom interior with different seats front and rear, possibly a cage, after market gauges, HID head lights, some stereo work, etc etc. I hope and plan to do ALL the work myself.

Here is a sneak peak at the car I got, but I will have more pics in a week or so.

Welcome JK. It is a slippery slope. Looks like you have a great car to build from. Looks to be Gulf blue, great color. Look forward to seeing your progress.
