Awesome work guys.

Tone, I love the "storm trooper" analogy. Makes me think back to when I was about 5 or 6 years old and there was this full size storm trooper helmet that I saw and wanted in a toy store. I put it on and it fitted perfectly too. I remember it like it was yesterday and I'm 41 now....2 months shy of turning 42. My mom told me no. I begged and cried. She couldn't afford it and it was only $30. Like I said I remember it like it was yesterday. But, I bet that $30 was probably like $300 back in the $70's and a $30 toy helmet was definitely out of the question. Til this day, seriously, when I see storm trooper helmets I just start feeling funny and smile on the inside. Not a big Star Wars fan, but storm troopers a just cool.

I have a question for you guys at RS. Can you built a bumper, quarter patch and back panel patch tout fit the bumper like this one without having the car for customer like me that live far?

They can, I'm sure. But, the fit can't be guaranteed because every car is different. Especially, since you're talking bout a car over 40 years old.

If we were building one on another car at the same time, we would be able to do it. With out a car here to fit against, it would be rather difficult. I would not want to take on a project like that and send you something that may or may not fit. The best bet is to have the car here adn build the parts to the specific car.

I didn't think that there would be something else you could possibly do to 69 that was fresh and impressive. This is my favorite 69 Camaro of all time---I love the front end and the white on black--and of course the stance. It's beautiful. I sure hope the owner appreciates your design and creativity as it is elegant yet aggressive at the same time. Beautiful---and a dream car fulfilled.

Thanks everyone! :thumbsup:

A couple of interior pieces we machined: a shifter surround to house the window switches and a custom toggle switch plate for all the accessory functions, (race/street gas tank crossover, headlight doors, trunk release etc)
