Well for those of you that have been wondering where Steve and his bright blue 69' Camaro have been for the past 2 years of so, well here's what I've been up to ....
I wanted to take the car to the highest level I possibly could, and build the cleanest, most tasteful and the most detailed 69 camaro possible... within my limits of course, and then enter it into the 2017 Motorama car show here in Toronto as 1st time ever shown.
So from the last version of my car the ONLY items that remained unchanged where the supercharged LS7 and the T56 Magnum transmission. This car has undergone a 2000+ hour restoration including the replacement of every panel on the car, a full new interior and a TON of small details that hopefully people (and the judges) would appreciate.
In the end we did ok, we got into the Top 10 (Like the Detroit Great 8) and received the runner up in the best of the Pro-touring class.
I want to extend a HUGE thank you to all the guys that came to the show this weekend just to see the car, some of you traveled quite a distance and I am honored that you guys came. Also want to recognize the following suppliers that came through for me in my time of GREAT need (like when we broke the front flush glass and needed a new one just 2 weeks ago !!) ... so BIG thanks to Roger at Speedtech for the Forgelines, Mike and Chris at Fesler for their big time help, the boys at Marquez Designs and to Anvil as well.
Also cannot forget the recognize the boys at Nadeau's body shop that did the most incredible body and custom work, and put up with my OCD crap for the past 2 years .. Rob, Jeff and Jeff #2 ... awesome and I thank you. And finally one of the nicest and well recognized interior specialists in the GTA, Harold at New Image Customs ... you nailed it buddy !!
Forgot Matt ... BEST exhaust guy around, this kid has serious skills (as you can see)
Thank you all
Sincerely
Steve Heck From Toronto Canada 'eh'
How could I forget this ...
