Well, you can look at my car and see a little of what I would do. If I had it to do over I would not tub my car, but it's too late for that. I've never had a tunnel ram on a running car before, so I don't know yet how I'm going to like it, but I think it's going to be cool. A 12 bolt or Dana 60 would be cool under it. I'm kind of tired of the 9 inch Ford stuff. I think the Dana looks great under a Camaro. Moser makes some bolt in 12 bolt and Dana 60 rear ends for your car. I love big blocks, especially the 427, so I'd have to go with that. If you like a small block then a high reving 327 with a bunch of day 2 stuff would be cool. I'm running a AutoGear 4 speed in my car with a 2.99 first gear, which helps me get the car moving on the street with a rear end gear that I can still run on the highway. I've also got a dual disc clutch with light pedal pressure so it's not too hard on my leg. Cragars are hard to beat on an old school hot rod, and the bias ply tires just look better to me. Keep the stock seats in it. The steering wheel that you have has potential if it can be restored. I'm also a fan of no spoilers. I'd love to build a '68 Camaro like this.
