Ha, play with one of those? Those things are like nannies. They just take care of you and and occasionally slap you on the wrist when you do something you're not supposed to! :lol:

Matt

We need more pics. :thumbsup:

Last week we got the only body modification done... We pulled the bottom section of the qtr panels to remove the taper for the wheel opening.. This will allow us to get the stance we are looking for.. Got a pic of a stock to modified comparision... We only had to cut the side bumper brackets to mount the rear bumper..

We also began the disassemble of the car.. This car sat in a body shop for about 15 years just doing nothing when we bought it.. I had forgotten how clean the floors were.. Got a good start... We will make our changes & then just do a scuff & paint..

Very cool Chris. Looking forward to seeing how your suspension set up turns out :thumbsup:

So this is the car getting that prototype chassis.... :unibrow:

Yeah me too! It has been an up hill battle trying to get this front suspension done.. The thing is for the last 8 weeks I have gotten a crash course on tuning a suspension.. So all that information is being transfered into our susepension design.. All I can say is that it is adjustable in so many ways.. But this is only for the prototype.. Once we shake it out & proof function.. It will be alot easier to produce.. Tonight we spent doing a buch of imaginary lines for roll center & roll height.. Very pleased with the results but found out that we need to lower the rack n pinion about a 1/2 .. Re-design on the cross member :faint: .. but it all is good.. Have a few talented people helping out!

Yeah! I just could not build this without proofing the prototype myself.. I like to confirm function & test on my personal car for a project this big..

In the end I think it was the right move, Cris. :thumbsup:

We got some progress going on the 68... I will be delivering BB sooon & will need another daily driver 68 Camaro.. :unibrow:

We got the firewall cut & fitting the new one fit.. plus we got the main hoop on the 4 pt cage built.. My guys are giving me a hard time about not running a LS motor in it.. So that is up in the air right now..

So .. I let Primo.. my main fabricator come up with a game plan on doing a quick mini tub... I walk out later in the afteroon & he has all the tub cut out with the frame rail cut out.. he looks @ me & says .. "Trust Me".. now we need a custom gas tank & the tubs will look like Pro Street tubs.. We are raising the frame rail about 1.50 to run the car low & so that we don't bottom out on the frame rail.. plus we moved it in about 3 inches.. I have this idea about shock placement..

More to come later..
