Glad to see you got your problems resolved and making progress.

Yes, resolved.... returned! Spoke with the DSE rep this past week and he assured me they will fit a 67 Camaro, I will order DSE mini tubs this week!

I am making progress on the roof, I thought I could get further than I did this weekend making this dang corner but this is complicated :superhack: , or I am really slow.

Anyway, the AMD roof front corners were crap, picture 1, and the roof line didn't follow the molding worth a crap .... so fix it! Easier said than done follow along with the pictures, making the roof line follow the molding and then making the corner piece in 3D.

Clamped in place .... getting there!

Hopefully, only a couple more hours, days? Some hammer dolly work and then finish the welding ... then the OTHER SIDE!!!

Thanks for looking...

Very Nice ! I was going to suggest the trim to check for fitment. I should have known better to think you didn't already think of it... Its looking great.

With the DSE tubs, you will still have to make a filler panel to fill the void on the driver's side tub caused by the tub being made for 68-9 Camaros and not 67's. It's simple and I'm sure you will be able to handle it:gitrdun:

It sucks having to do this much fab work but my AMD corners were off but probally not that bad,I am thankful that at least there are parts available or we would not have this enjoyable and expensive hobby

Thanks Wayne, you should know I would already be on top of that ... I just wished I didn't have to open up a can of worms every time I touch something.

I am all ready for that ... as long as they fit like they say this should be a piece of cake, round two :hairpullout:

I wished they weren't this bad either ... sometimes it makes me wonder if they have ever seen a 67 Camaro, really:ohsnap:

Looks good Chief!! just read the last 10 pages, nice work,

I've been laying low, trying to get my building done then get back to the car, etc,

Michael, the new frame rail cutouts were shipped out. You should have them any day now.

Thanks Steve, it's been a journey ... get back onto that car :poke:

Got them Wednesday ... now everyone can get closeouts for their non staggered Camaro, thanks for the service and I'm glad I could be part of the solution :thumbsup:

This is where the closeouts go if you're wondering ... drivers side shock tower!

Update 7/20
 

Wow, where does time go? Been in the field lately and my DSE mini tubs came to the house this past week .... fit them in that night and I they were close to 2.75" wider but not exactly. Called and talked to Matt at DSE and a fellow member here and they say ya gotta push the metal around.... 1/4" at the front floor pan is alot of tension and then welding it to the flanges? The tubs fit the contour of the outer tub good, the stamping is 18 gauge and not as crisp as one would like to see .... there is a gap between outer and inner and I guess people just beat the heck outa the metal to get it close enough to weld?

Not wanting to weld a pie shape piece of metal into the wheel tub (read warp tub) I though I might kill two birds with one big stick .... straighten out the flange (thinking outside the box, don't add metal ... it's already there, the flange!) the outer wheel house is screwed in and that is my edge to remark and MY 2.75" is the inside line ..... re bend with the width/ location that I need to make up :superhack:

So, small cut lines and some hammer and dolly work she's flat .... working on the closeouts first for the reference to clamp everything first. Take a look

Probably the only one to ever cut up a DSE tub :lostmarbles:

Took longer to jig than weld!

Stayed at a 90, finish the front side later!

These are the Chassisworks closeouts they made me!

I will stitch weld the front of the closeout and spray some of Eastwood's frame coating inside the hole there and the frame ... hopefully get that closed out tomorrow and maybe even the frame.

Call me crazy if you want .... a 2.75" mini tub should be 2.75" wider at all points and mine will be just that.


Thanks for looking .....
