Hey Mark, looking good. I just remembered my old screen name. Haven't seen any updates in a while, but I'm betting you're overseas. Good luck!

First the wheels, FS905 with Polished lip, polished face and black bolts and inner dish. The wheels are a 18X9 Front and 18X12 in the rear and they look sick.

Todd, This picture raises a question. Do you think them bottom shock mounts would fit are G Bar?

bigtyme1 06-06-2009 07:37 PM

LOve the Wheels Chris, Mark it's going to be killer. Since your so close maybe we can hook up when you come home. I'm getting pretty close myself still need an interior.

Vegas69 06-06-2009 08:59 PM

Great looking wheels....and not a chance bigtyme. I have it whipped. Posting photos of the completed set up soon.

markd 06-07-2009 12:07 PM

I am finally getting around to posting an update. Here are some pictures taken this past Spring. The shop is currently assembling the car and will soon start to cut and buff the paint.

Final test fit...

Thanks Mark! I have been following the progress on your car and it looks great! I have about 90 days left here and I will give you a call when I get back in the States.

Jeff,

I have not decided on an engine yet, but I need to make a decision soon!!!

Josh69 06-08-2009 02:23 PM

Looks great! Seeing that rendering makes one appreciate how good they look with the original trim. Has me re-considering adding my wheelwell mouldings back!

crazycarl 09-28-2009 11:24 AM

Hey Carl – thanks for asking! I am a little behind in updating this thread. It’s been a little crazy here! I just got back from the deployment and will be picking up the car in a few weeks. I will also try to post more pictures later this week. Here are a few pictures

Thanks guys! The car is finally starting to come together. I should be getting the LS3 from Turnkey Engine Supply within the next couple of days and will take a few pictures when it arrives. Here are a few more pictures of the car.

Your car looks great. Nice work . It must feel good doing the reassembly.

markd 10-02-2009 07:39 PM

Here are a few more updates:

The front clip has DSE headlights, wiper kit, core support close out (painted), firewall fill plate and RS headlight kit. Fesler billet hood hinges, billet hood latch, stainless steel hood adjusters and billet indicator lights.

Here’s a pictures of the LS3 built to produce 565hp with a 4L60E level 4 transmission and other goodies. The engine is all GO with no bling, because I am quickly running out of $$! The engine and trans will go into the car next week.

markd 10-22-2009 01:51 PM

We are finally starting to make some great progress on the car! The cooling, engine, transmission, chrome and Vintage Air are now installed.

We painted a 2010 Camaro engine cover to match the car. Not sure if I like it! :question:

The wheels / tires pictured below are not the final wheels; we are waiting for the Fesler wheels to be adjusted.

Looks Good Mark, Funny I had the same idea with the engine cover but I wanted to see what was at SEMA first.. Are you going out this year?

Mark: Yes, I will be at SEMA from 3-6 Nov. I will give you a call on your cell phone when I get on the ground in Vegas!

Thanks Todd! It’s not exactly the look I was going for, but it does look good. The guys at the shop went a little overboard on making everything shinny and smooth. Oh well…it was an expensive lesson learned on my part

markd 11-02-2009 07:15 PM

Okay – I finally got the car back from the body shop! Now, its time to have some fun with the wiring and interior.

Awesome! Incredible car and awesome details! I like the 5gen ls3 covers on yours! Looks awesome painted! Cant waitt to se it with the final wheels!:lateral:

crazycarl 11-03-2009 10:24 AM

While the engine cover isn't quite my style, I do think it looks good. Obviously it's well detailed and I also like the fact that it's not the standard Corvette or GTO cover.

I will also be at SEMA Wednesday and Thursday so if you see a guy with spiky blue hair don't hesitate to introduce yourself. I'll probably have a Rushforth Wheels or SpeedTech shirt on.

markd 03-28-2010 06:05 PM

Frank – my car is headed your way!
 
Everyone: I decided to have Frank @ Prodigy Customs finish my car! I will keep you updated as they make progress on the car.

Frank: I will send you an email later tonight with the ETA

Thanks,

Mark
