I can understand all the hype on Big Red. But its a track car with tube chassis, heavy horsepower and stock car components and is build no different than other track cars. I know the intent was to keep the body and interior pretty stock. But for me Radical means a combo of everything from off the wall engine, custom chassis , serious ride height, trick suspension, one off body mods and eye catching paint, some full tilt recovery room interior, and proven performance to match. I understand the car has got a lot of exposure because of the races its been in and the crash. But again IMO its a track car and if I wasnt familiar with its background I personally wouldn't pick it out of a crowd or race because its radical, it would be because its IN THE LEAD.
#1 for most radical track car....yes
personally I would mix the killer 69 or Kenny D's 69 with Penny's performance or Jakes test car

My old car

Is this the turbo car you sold and do you have any photos or teaser shots of what your building now.
Dave

Whats the ride height of this killer car and tire size. Is it on air bags?
Dave

if by radical you mean ugly as sin sure.

Cracks me up the guy lacks the balls to drive it too. engine downgrade :lol:

deleted

? What are you saying

I believe he is referring to the owner changing out the motor for a less powerful one......

Yep, that's the turbo car.

It has one of the cleanest Engine Bay's for a TT car.

Blake at Killer Kustoms built this car, and these are shots from SEMA 2006.
I think its coilovers and I have no idea of the tire size.
Maybe Blake will chime in.

I thought I had a close up of the tires, but no luck.

In case you missed this firewall-reservoir set-up and the steering colunm gromet and the and the and the....

Mick

lol!!!
I know! Awesome car.:hail: :thumbsup:

It's in the May, 2009 Camaro Performers magazine. According to the article, it's on coil-overs. Rear wheels are 20X12 with 335/30ZR-20s, fronts are 19X8-1/2 with 245/35ZR-19s. Rear suspension is a modified Art Morrison triangulated 4-bar and front is a stock sub with Unisteer rack & pinion, and Speed Tech control arms.

Shiny Side Up!

YEAAA !! finally in the press!!
took 3 years
the article looks great and i am sure the customer is excited!!

The feature turned out really nice Blake. I've seen the car in person once and they pointed out a bunch of stuff I wasn't aware of. :thumbsup:

No air here, it runs the QA1 coil overs. if i remember the bottom of the sub is 4-4.5 off the ground
255/30/19 and 335/30/20 on 19x8.5 and 20x12
we have toyed with the idea of putting one of the sub frames under it but the car is finished so nice i would hate to have to pull it appart.

AWESOME car!!!!:thumbsup: :cheers:

I can't believe it took 3 years to get this car in a magazine!!! This car is just bad azz!!! No two ways about it !!. Its also one of my top three favorite 69 Camaro's It does'nt get any better than that..Well deserved Blake and Paul:cheers:

Same here. Definitely one of my favorite Camaros.
CONGRATS!!!:lateral:

Congrats as well Blake, car and article look awesome! :thumbsup:

Hopefully you guys can see it's hard to get a car shot and featured being quite far north here in Canada.

Not so easy, but Nick Licata and Chris Shelton are great guys to deal with. :cheers:

Well guys....I'm the owner of the "Killer 69" in Camaro Performers......

All I can say is Killer Customs Rocks.....the magazine story looks great and is totally accurate.....I do Love my ride :D

Blake & Paul....know how to build em...Thanks guys..

Hi All,
This Camaro is the Camaro that sold me on them. I saw it i think in super rods mag and i just love it. If the owner is on this forum I congratulate him.
Regards
Adam

I agree Adam that is one of the first camaros that really got my attention :thumbsup:

Isnt that James Browns camaro?

Mike
If you want the shots I took at SEMA drop me a PM with an email address and I'll shoot my collection to you.

Mick

Welcome, Mike. Awesome ride you have. :cheers:

I agree with you 100% Rogue. My best friend is working on a 69 and I turned him to your threads and youtube videos. He love's the car. He wants to build something affordable and most importantly a blast to drive. We can't get over the sound of your rock crusher being wound up by the 502.

That is an AWESOME car.
Congrats!!:thumbsup: :cheers:

Love the car Mike....we need some action shots and video. :thumbsup:

Well, we can pull Spiro's car out of the ring for most bad ass, unless we say "was"...

He was not hurt, but the car got wrecked a couple weeks ago in an NMCA race in Bradenton. Bummer.

OUCH!! That sucks!! Atleast the only thing hurt was his pocket book. That car was bad ass!!

WAS!

with out a doubt in it's own way
too bad he has gone to a new car, all be it more aerodynamic just not as cool!

The new GXP is an aero-bullet, but keep in mind he still has the original '69 Camaro race car, which was one of the standouts of the whole street car drag scene in the early '90s, and he won the championship a couple years ago with it... it's the single turbo car, so he still has an all-steel Camaro in the fleet. Who knows, it may make a comeback now that the super-bad twin car got hurt.

That is a total bummer about Pappas wreacking that Hemi Car, that car was an amazing masterpiece. Don't worry that single turbo car being outdated, it was running 6.70 at the Super Street Car Nationals last year. So He still has a bad ass single turbo camaro to run.

Rodger

To me the Motion performance super coupe is the most radical
69 Camaro there is.

Tonny

spiros gxp is a adrl car was being built way before the wreck was not built to replace it . from my understanding the motor out of the first 69 is in the gxp and the twin car is being rebuilt . either the single turbo car or the twin turbo car will be ready for the bowling green ky race.

Let me firs say that in no way do I condone this kind of behavior! Anyway, here is one...........

Now is that paint? Or a primer on John's car?
That is such a NICE car!!!:hail: :thumbsup:

Personally the 69 that troy built a few years back the champagne and gold drag car! wow thats my vote amazing car whats not to love details for days and catch me if you can power!

That car is a work of art!!!!!!!!! I wish we could see it finished. Im sure thats primer ,he has two color versions on his build page...
