Randy,

Good to meet you today. I remembered seeing this thread a while ago and did not put 2 and 2 together until I got home. I can't wait to see it when it is done. Any chance of it being at SEMA this year?

Jeff,
It was also nice to meet you. Not shure if the camaro will be done. We (tom nelson and I)backed out of sema this year since some components are only in the drawing stage and need to be built. It will be a few months yet. If it gets done by sema we will try for a long shot.

Thanks
Randy

What size rim does it take to fill out that 345-18 BFG Drag Radial? What offset? Did bent custom do the fuel system?

rims
 

The rims are 12 inches wide 2.5 outer and 9.5 inner and yes bent custom did all the stainless lines. I will be at nelsons on the 29th tom and I are going to sema on the 30-31st. That 92 you have looks good

intake
 

Here is a pic of my intake wich was built by www.nelsonracingengines.com

Thanks for the kind words, still a country mile away from where your car is. I work for one of the major manufacturers local to Nelson Racing which I'll leave nameless. I have to work SEMA will the car be there? Will it be in a booth or outside?

sema
 

Sorry the car will not be done for sema. The car is at toms shop so you are close to it. If you see tom at sema I will be with him.
Randy

Is that the notorious $8000 intake?

Everything looks amazing.
Thanks for the update.
Kory

intake
 

Yes that is the nelson billet intake.

camaro
 

Stopped in at Nelsons on monday to see the camaro. The tubs are done and Scott was going to paint the floor pan this week. Nelson had a twin turbo on the dyno and got to see that bad boy run at 2 am. The car looks great Mark at bent tubbing done the mini tub and hard lines. That guy is outstanding. Tom and I went to the sema show were i meet tons of people. We also went to the lateral g and pro-touring party. The trip was a blast and I will be their next year

this is one wicked camaro, i thought i had good power. you are exactly double amount of the power of my car. I hope to see future progress pics, maybe some of the exhaust.

You happen to have any picture updates? I am itching to see more of this car!!

Jason

car
 

Yea give me a few days the floor pans should be painted scott was masking of the car last friday The interior was done but it will go back the rear panels did not fit so we are going to mold a new set to look stock then send them out to be injection molded
Randy

now that sounds like the spendy way to build a car!

Thank you, I wish I could have seen the car when it was here in town @ Lemons. Any pictures will be appreciated! I had planned to get my 69' Camaro going first, but it is on the back burner now as I plan to continue on building up my 91'

Jason

Very well executed....looks amazing.

show
 

I seen on another site that you posted for the third gen only show I am interested in going next year keep me up to date
Thanks

any picture updates??

up dates
 

Sorry Scott primed the car and found spots he didnt like. So the pans/tubs need more sanding and touch ups
Thanks
Randy

tubs
 

Mark Bohlen has some pics of the camaro tubs on his web site at www.bentcustomandperformance.com look for the gallery and 1984 camaro

nice build.

Any updates you could give on this build? I am itching to see more !:thumbsup:

Jason

I know the pans are being painted today they are spending tons of time on the floor pans the final coat of primer was shot tuesday. should be soon

I saw your tubs personally and damn mark did a good job on those. Your camaro is probally one of best uses of pro touring on a 80's GM product so far. Your camaros gets it, I Like the thing quite a bit.

camaro
 

Thanks pontiac65 for the great post:thumbsup:

Any new progress? If so, please share! :thumbsup: :lateral:

floor
 

This picture is not complete but this can give you a good idea on how its going to look. I should have some completed pics later in a few weeks.

Thanks
Randy

I surfed Marks site ( www.bentcustomandperformance.com ) yesterday and all I can say is WOW !!!

I wonder if I could persuade him to do a road trip to Arkansas to plumb my truck. I would be honored :hail: to have his quality on my project.

bent custom
 

Ship your car the cost is not that bad I just shipped a car from florida to wisconsin enclosed trailer for 1,200 bucks door to door. I felt the cost was worth the getting a great job. Just my .02 cents:yes:

I actually don't have a problem shipping the truck to them it's just a time issue that we are backed into. Maybe the next project. Heck I may just ship them the motor.

bent custom
 

Give mark a call next time I will say working with him and nelson then meeting them at the sema show was like being with old friends. I had a great time

not to worry were already talking back and forth via e-mail

exhaust
 

Some guys been asking about the exhaust so here a some pics this is some older pics. The pipes will be polished.
Thaks for your interest. Note that the tubs are not in pictures but they fit the same

camaro
 

Well Its time to get this post going again. The camaro is getting close to done
It is at bent custom having some finishing touches done. Mark will be posting some pics of the project the next few weeks.

The camaro is sema bound!!!:yes: :yes: Booth number 20615

I have been wondering what the status was but did not want to keep bothering you for info... PLEASE, keep us updated!
