The Starliner was picked up last week and headed back to Michigan where the customer will be completing the car I will try to get some updates along the way or have them post some pictures as it progresses. it should be a reall nice build. Here are a few shots before it left.

The fairlane chassis is just about completed as well. Final fitting the body on the frame adn designing a few of the crossmembers to clear the floor.

Another exciting new arrival was dropped off when the Starliner was picked up. This has been a personal favorite for quite some time and we are really excited to have a 59 El Camino in the shop. This car will be getting one of our Fast Track production chassis for the 58-64 Impala's. Power will be from either a LS3 or an LSA. The owner is looking to have a reliable, unique, and fun daily driver.

Thanks Scott. We have a pretty good mix of projects going on. Eveything from 32/33 Fords, a few Tri-5 Chevy's, a few late 50's/early 60's cars, and a collection of Chevelles and Camaros. It keeps it different and exciting around here for sure.

Right now we have 18 active full builds going. There are about a half dozen smaller jobs like component installs, maintenance work/upgrades, and custom chassis design/installs. There are a few shop cars that get intermittently worked on and a few projects on hold around the shop as well.

They are a hair on the touchy side, but no where near as sensitive as some of the hydraulic units we have used in the past. The pedal feel is great for a street car, I would say OK for a track car. I still prefer a manual brake set up for track and auto x use for better modulation and pedal feel.

I would relate the ABS unit to a new foreign car. Have an Audi A4 and it is a real similar feel.

i have abs system on my Charger, those are fantastic.

I hope you can point us to where the owner might post some build updates.
