DBasher 06-23-2014 03:58 PM

I'm ok waiting for the pictures. I just had a big lunch and need a bit for it to settle...LOL!

Curios to see the rear trunk/tail panel section and the bumper/tail lights used.

Amen to that.:stirthepot::lmao: :lmao:

aggie91 06-27-2014 01:18 PM

4 days later and still no pics of the color on the car? Man those stripes must be a pain in the a$$ to layout on that car...:confused59:

Ed.Capen 07-28-2014 08:26 AM

Ok this was the picture sent from my painter......really.

http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/...ps09ea3f73.jpg

Then shots from inside the booth..

http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/...ps5ffe14ee.jpg

Here is the car inside the booth...

http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/...ps9bd81368.jpg

Here was the first shot from outside to really see the color....

http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/...ps873c7365.jpg

Here is the car outside....

http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/...ps92de8749.jpg

Now the stripe and NOMARO letters..

Ed.Capen 07-28-2014 08:34 AM

Here is what we are looking at for letters....

http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/...ps47106d0b.jpg

We also got the rear bumper narrowed and the ends cut straight to the body..

http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/...ps60242864.jpg

Layout the stripes and letters....

Ed.Capen 07-28-2014 08:38 AM

Here is the stripe lay out....

http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/...ps17f7e092.jpg

http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/...ps1cf579b2.jpg

http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/...pse474e43f.jpg

Now the Lexus White Pearl paint will be laid down over the Viper Blue so the letter will show through.

Dave Pratt 07-28-2014 09:30 AM

I just read the entire thread front to back...that's so cool thinking that far outside of the box.One heck of a project and the fab work is great.More pics...

syborg tt 07-28-2014 09:55 AM

I can't wait to see a side shot of this car back together and the color is one of my favorites.

Vince@Meanstreets 07-28-2014 10:24 AM

nice, you going up then down the trunk lid with that stripe too? that would look stunning.

Ed.Capen 07-28-2014 10:51 AM

This is the NOMARO on the stripe. it will end on the top of the rear fender and not go over the deck lid.

http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/...psd25f5d31.jpg

There will also not be anything on the hood.

Enjoy

WSSix 07-28-2014 11:50 AM

Nice, Ed! Glad to see it in color.

jarhead 07-28-2014 03:20 PM

Sweeeeeeet!

Ed.Capen 07-28-2014 06:19 PM

here is the white NOMARO stripe on the blue, some clear coat and a little sand and buff and the paint is done.

http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/...pseb95fd61.jpg

Hope you enjoy....
:thankyou:

GregWeld 07-28-2014 07:31 PM

Is this a Hybrid??

Tuske427 07-28-2014 08:39 PM

This is cool! Surprised I haven't seen this one yet.. Different is good. So much better than just another camaro...

Greg, Yes I guess you can call this a Hybrid...:hairpullout:

I am going over to AZ to pick it up Thursday and will get some better pictures then. Now the work begins for me...

Ed

Ed.Capen 07-29-2014 01:16 PM

Now the clear is covering the stripe and base. looks pretty good.

http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/...psa5d895e9.jpg

Can't wait to grab it over the weekend....:thumbsup:

Blake Foster 07-29-2014 01:49 PM

looks good, I still say it would have been easier to put a Nova roof on a Camaro though!! :poke:

Nonhog 07-29-2014 02:20 PM

Wow how cool!
I keep thinking about those 68 and 9 Buicks that need a 1/4 panel transplant.
(no offence 68-9 Skylark owners) :thumbsup:

Ed.Capen 07-30-2014 06:32 AM

Here are the rest of the parts with the final clear coat sprayed.

Off for the vinyl top today and put the glass in before it heads to Northern Cal for me to install the drivetrain.

More updates to follow....

GregWeld 07-30-2014 06:46 AM

Glad you're putting the vinyl top on -- they look great on these cars. Ironworks Chevelle even made the cover of a magazine with one! They're making a comeback!!

Going with a white top?

These cars? Please tell me this is the only one!

Paint looks nice Ed, that blue with the white looks sharp.

Dan

Ed.Capen 07-30-2014 05:29 PM

OK here is the top on the car..Greg as you can see it is Black!!!!

http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/...ps0993cc7a.jpg

Sorry Jason, I think it looks good...:thumbsup:

WSSix 07-30-2014 07:52 PM

x2 vinyl tops are classic and go great with a car trying to keep the classic theme alive. Car's looking great, Ed.

ChuckDriver 07-30-2014 10:49 PM

Vinyl top looks perfect on it!

aidanfancystang 07-31-2014 06:59 AM

this is turning out way better than I thought it would, loving it.

aggie91 07-31-2014 09:34 AM

Looks realy good. Can't wait to see it all together...

66fury 07-31-2014 05:10 PM

not big on camaros or novas but combined its awesome,great work !

Boss 5.0 07-31-2014 06:38 PM

I really like it. Can't wait to see pics of it all together.

Ed.Capen 08-01-2014 08:51 AM

Thanks for all the positive responds to the top. With the theme that I am going for with this I wanted to stick to something that would of been build by GM back in the early 70's. I will add pictures later today as I am here in Phoenix AZ picking it up.

Goal now is SEMA to show this off.
Enjoy
:thumbsup:

65 347 08-01-2014 08:57 PM

Really different different build, looks great in paint. Keep up the great work.

Mike

Ed.Capen 08-03-2014 05:41 PM

Ed.Capen 08-03-2014 05:49 PM

Here is a few shots of the car back here in Cali. The Suspension, Motor and Tranny and underside cleanup are next.

http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/...psb02c717f.jpg

As you can see it needs tires and wheels and lowered which is all being done next. Also the interior will get a set of 69 Camaro front buckets with Black and White Houndstooth and the console horse-shoe shifter. Door panels and the rest of the interior will be stock black.

Stay tune for more updates.

Enjoy....

Me too ! I can't wait until the first guy tells you he had a 66 Camaro like this when he was a kid. Really had a guy argue with me he had a 66 one time.

syborg tt 08-04-2014 09:05 AM

Car looks good but I am hoping you are going to lower it.

1transam 08-04-2014 09:21 AM
