rear will still come down a bit and front up a tad , but you get the idea I hope

This car is coming along very nicely:thumbsup:

Lookin good y'all!

Looking good guys! Truck looks great also! :thumbsup:

Very nice, and what an awesome body to start with :thumbsup: Question what size are those rear tires? Keep the pictures coming :cheers: Do you think you will make Sema?

Thanks man, yes the car will debut at Sema, and the rear tires are 335/30/20

Really nice work, rear panel is awsome!

This car looks really good in bare metal. :thumbsup:

I concur Skip! Looks great with a great stance.
Awesome work.

Awesome job on the rear panel. :thumbsup: Car looks great!

Amazing work, very tasteful mods, can't wait to see more.

x2........... very nice work

some updates for you guys!

Rear bumper and lower valance work,

I know there has been a lot of arguing as of late as to which came first the chicken or the....wait who's rear bumper came first or whos idea or what??
Well I will say this, me and Ben Hermance went back and forth on what to do on the rear bumper , because I have always hated how the rears dont even come close to matching the front so its only natural to mimic the front with the sides....lots of things are done the same on cars and its not always "copying"
..I dont know it seems that lately the "trend" has been toward building a modern interpretation of a muscle car etc.... well we are all getting inspiration from all sorts of places, oems ,high end exotics ,etc. ...should we all be taken to the wood shed for copying the rear diffuser off of the latest lambo, or that cool dash from the pagani, or that your has an LS just like mine or that our wheels are round just like yours , etc. I do see both sides and have been in the situation where I see something oddly familiar and say.....Oh cmon! , but you know what , unless you have created a perpetual motion device, hovering capabilities , or auto pilot then its not really "innovative" and is just your take on something that has been done 100 times before in some way or fashion and has had an influence on you wether directly or subconsciously ... Thats why we have so many builders if we all make our own tweaks... In the end all of us are doing what we love to do working on cars , not curing cancer , so lighten up ,if its all stress all the time then get a real job ... its a lot more profitable , just not as mutch fun
sorry for the rant heres some pics

The weatherproof pressure pad in the bumper is the trunk release

AMEN to that brother!!

WHAT THE F.......that looks just like the Ring's Razor, LOL. JK, looks awesome. You guys are doing a great job! :thumbsup:

Very well put.
Let the craftsmanship speak for how the idea was carried out, not argue over who thought of it first.


Jeff-

I second this ..............

Great stuff guys. Keep up the great work.

Nice and clean.

Very nice guys. I'm gonna have to drag myself down there one day and check these projects out firsthand :).

John , you keep threatening that but I've yet to see you, c'mon down:D

Love the work you guys do, camaro looks great!

After seeing this, Im just going to take my ball and go home!!!

Amazing work guys!!!!!!

Very well put on the rant :thumbsup:
And as far as the metal work I'm just speechless but keep the pictures coming.

Josh you guys keep knocking it out of the park!! I'm going to start a new tag on my signiture of stolin ideas I'm going to have to add you now...:D

Amazing work! Could you tell me what size lip the wheels have in front and rear. I like the look of a decent lip in front when the rear is so deep. "that sounds funny". The trunk release is an awesome idea. Can't wait for more updates.

Herman

Cant wait to see this finished!

Thanks a lot and we would be honored to be on that list, :D


The wheels that are on there in those shots are mockup wheels, but are close to the offsets that we will be running in the end, front is 9" wide with a 5.5 BS and the rear is a 12 with a 5.2 BSthis gives you roughly 5" of lip in the back and 2.5" to 3" lip in the front , final BS on the front will come in around a 1/2" to give more tire clearance when turning, hope that helped a litttle

-Josh

Josh,

I love your Rear End I am sure you spent alot of time at the gym working on it. I just hope Ben and you weren't working out together.

lol - no serious it looks awesome !!!!

Ben - Love your Renderings

Yes, that helps, and Ill say it again... Awesome Build!

Herman

HA :rofl: And then Josh wonders why I haven't been down for a visit.
