I really like the side trim in the first rendering. I like how the reveal begins at the bottom of the rear side glass.

COOL BODY
LOVE THE IDEAS...COLOR......DESIGN..
LOVE THE WHEELS and Stance
CONGRATS Mr G Weld..

I know this is gonna be a show stopper..

:cheers:

Tom

I'm sorry, but that brown just did it for me. :faint: :faint: It is crazy. I say brown it is, if it were me. Oh, the motor is sick too. That Maggie looks like a fine piece of art on top of the LSx. Can't wait to see this one come to life. :thumbsup:

We had also been in disscussion with Sean Smith about doing a few sketches and working with us for some ideas on the details of the car. We started out with a really loose sketch of the side view of the car and ended up with this. We were trying some ideas on putting a recess into the side trim and some other details into the car at this point.

We then decided we wanted to have a smooth transition in the side trim and carry the reveal a bit further forward on the side of the car. We also had the HRE 943RL wheels drawn into the rendering. I really feel this rendering helps put Greg and I on the same page with this car and starts to give the car a really different but very bad ass vibe. I'm really excited about the direction of this build.

61's and 62's are one of my favorite cars. My next car after the Camaro is a 61 bubble top. Cool project Rodger sure this one is gunna be over the top just like everything else you guys do. :thumbsup:

x2 i like the way it flows with the rear pillar creating a arch...
man that brown is gonna be sick!!! what color for int then? a rich light brown like in the new jeep suv??:unibrow:

Hats off to both of you. Very classy indeed.
IMO the moldings in the hand sketch rendering are very unique and different compared to the rendering moldling that looks like a modified version of stock.
But thats my 2 cents.... and in this economy its reduced to 3/4 cent so its not worth much.

Greg... the "Weld-Air" concept looks great.

My favorite car of all times. Even though I dreamed of building one on Hydraulics and wire wheels. I love 62 bubbles!!!

Very interested in more info on the motor and blower info. Sent you a PM

Wow Greg, this is a way cool build in a sea of Camaro's. Love the rendering, wheels and paint choice as well. Can't wait to see this one as well

nice car to build.something a little different.the bubble top body styles just look soo swweeet with the right stance.do you plan on building a new chassis for it or just modifying the orig. frame?.I like the dash concept so far. keep the inspiration going.:thumbsup:
