Thank you very much Mike were getting closer. Kenny just opened his 3rd body shop which is awesome. So he has been really busy. But the car is still getting worked on.

Sema yep I am going and I am even going to spend the weekend mountain biking and site seeing this year. So without a doubt we need to hook up.

I was actually thinking of driving down to Vegas this year rather than flying, if that's the case.....I could bring my mountain bike and barge in...how would u get it there?

Driving the car out there with the bike on it? Be brave lol

I drove home in 2010 and I swore I would never do it again. 1732 miles in a Camaro was fun till I needed a nap. When I got home I was so sore I laid in the hot-tub for an hour.

Ok to be serious most likely it will get hauled out there in Kenny's trailer and the bike will be on the side. I am trying to find another frame like the bike I ride and build a 2nd bike just for the car. So I will always have a bike on the car.

I do have a bike for the car but it's a hard tail and I am fairly certain my surgeon would tell me not to ride the bike.

Bike mount details please
 
Marty,

Love the build. When you catch up on the posts could you show a little detail on the MTB mount. Riding is my second love and it would be cool to put something like that on my 67. Sometimes it helps to see an idea close up to get the juices flowing. I have been riding more than working on the car. In a weird way seeing your bike mount got me out in the garage - go figure !!

2nd Chance Camaro - High Speed Welding Bike Rack

Good Evening All,

Here is an inside look at the "B" Pillar.

Once all of the welding was complete Joe added a final plate to increase strength.

There was already a hole in the quarter panel from the antenna so we decided that the rear mount would use the existing hole.

The mount is then bolted to the bung which exits the quarter panel.

We used the existing brackets from Rockymounts to anchor the tray to our bracket.

Both mounts are removable and once removed all that is left is the bung.

I have the same problem you do. I am torn between working on my car or my bikes. Then you add riding into the mix and it really screws everything up.

Thanks again for your compliments on the build.
