High end equipment, needed in this type of build. As an aircraft mechanic for the last 20 + years, it's great seeing this type of craftsmanship and mechanical packaging. I miss working on turbos. :(

Great car, was the roll cage custom built?

Now, thats my kind of ride! WOW

High marks for going green. Your bold... :thumbsup:

R.P.

It's a Chassis works prototype that Pascual designed.I am pretty sure that they are available now.

LOVE the Camaro! Correct me if Im wrong. Is that final color going to be Frost green from 1969?

I sooo love this car It has the best stance ive seen.

I'll second that statement :thumbsup:

Thanks Im glad you like it.It's not the original 69 frost green,it is a custom blend.

I have gotten quite a few email's and PM"s asking about different mods.So we put together a quick spec sheet,its not complete but it's a start.

I have to say I'm pretty lucky to live about 20 mins away from Marquez Design. I was down the about 3 weeks and Jonny's car was on the lift. To be able to get under it & just see how well thought out & engineered this car is way understated. It's one thing to see it from the top - but to see it from underneath just makes it that much better. The attention to detail is about as good as it gets. Hats off to Marquez Design and Jonny for creating one of the best, if not the best overall 69's I have ever seen. Look forward to seeing it in color and completed.
