Couple new photos...

Things are really rolling on the car now! Paint is done and and Travis has been cutting and buffing it, heading towards a mirror finish.

Meanwhile the front subframe is coming together as is the 572 BBC/ T56 drivetrain. Pictured here is the cool front drive system we got in from Eddie Motorsports. This system is really nice, it's got just the right sheen on the finish and the bracketry has a real clean and lean design- not big and bulky looking.

While the mechanicals are coming together we also have the upholstery under way. We're using Recaro seats which are getting new covers made. Simple yet bold, a good way to describe the whole car.

TOO LATE!!. you really have no option anyway with a hirise dual quad intake. it actually looks good because it is body color and it really just blends in.

Thanks for the compliments everyone.

Tmadden- it is a bit big but as Blake said also necessary. Unfortunately sometimes folks get TOO carried away with cowl induction scoop heights and it throws the balance of the overall look off. With this Camaro's huge rear tires, deep offset wheels, and contrasting black rear spoiler it should all visually balance out. Stay tuned for more coolness...

First spy photos on the paint via Travis' cell phone...

Travis is a fantastic painter, but this is where everything really comes to life!

Just seen the dash & engine pics on fb. Looking good! Jay was telling me to keep an eye out for the startup video.

Any reason for the speedo going the opposite way?

Blake Foster 04-21-2014 11:08 AM

all the gauges rotate out of the center. the 3 gauges on the left rotate to the left and the right rotates to the right, the reason............. it's different.
