Just my personal opinion, but today everyone is trying to 'out-do' everyone else, and by doing so typically overcomplicate, too busy, too blingy etc. With this car, I wanted the colour and simple design elements to do the talking and again so far opinions absolutely agree, and I hope you guys do too.

Looks amazing! Well done.

VERY nice work!

WSSix 03-23-2025 10:32 AM

Completely agree with your vision/opinion, Steve. Glad it's coming along as you wanted.

Steve, is that Harold the head honcho working on your interior? His shop re-covered some BMW seats years ago and they did a nice job for me. He even gave me some solid advice helping to motivate me into tackling & fabricating my custom console myself.
You keep pushing the envelope on some of your builds, nice. The only problem is you're making it hard for some of us to keep up with your high standards.

Keep up the fine work!

Sheck44 03-25-2025 04:09 AM

Ha ! LOL ... Thanks Simon, very kind words.

I couldn't push the limits on creativity without the man, the myth, the Legend ... Harold. He's actually got a new guy Hector, that has been invaluable with his input on some of the design elements as well. It's all the little things that take a car from great to awesome, so I can't take all the credit for the final product.

Car will be there for another week if you have time to stop in at Harold's and take a look.

Cheers
Steve

That seat needs to be mass produced and I'm sure there will be plenty of 1st gen Camaro and Firebird guys wanting one. Very nice, props to Harold and company!

OLDFLM 03-31-2025 05:45 AM

2nd Gen guy too!
 
That seat with the center hump would work great in 2nd Gens too!

Probably the best rear seat idea I've seen!!

Thanks Joe, appreciate the feedback, especially from a pro.

This 3D printed console turning out to be WAY more $$ than I anticipated, but when it all comes together I think it's going to make the car.

Will know soon enough

Cheers
Steve

Holy Doo Doo this car is so over the top awesome !!


We need more pictures and when and where is the car going to debut ?

Sheck44 07-20-2025 03:58 AM

Thanks Marty !!

I am hoping to have her 100% complete by end of next month.
The car might be sold already, but still to be confirmed when she's done.
The plan is to rent this space for a couple of hours for a 'thank you' reveal party and invite all those that had there hands on the car as well as those that are interested in purchasing the car ...
And stay tuned for more pics
