The interior panels are done so our focus is now headed in that direction. What's a street/ race car without some decent tunes for when you're waiting in line, right?

Karl's Camaro
 
What's a race car without tunes?

Makes me think about a guy I used to race against in my Scca
Autocross days.. it would be 103 or 104 out... really hot...and I would go over to him to check what his time was while waiting in the staging lanes...he would slightly crack the window down with his AC going and listening to classical music
and smile... I told him I was sure that was against the rules:)

I would head back to my car with rollup windows, no ac, no insulation
on the firewall or floor and try to hide from the sun inside and then
hope the damn thing started after heat soaking the starter

Awesome story Bob! :thumbsup:

Moving along, Jeremy's got the front fascia all put together with a custom hexagon mesh that matches the rest of the design motif and is contoured in the middle and at the sides. A late model RS emblem helps hide the split between the two grill sides, and check out those trick turn signals!

The engine bay is also near completion and should be ready to fire up here soon. The goal is to have this car on display at the upcoming LS Fest West where you can see it up close.

The car was raised up on the lift today so I shot a few more pics underneath. Some front suspension, engine oil filter lines on our Road Race oil pan, the transmission and our new frame stiffening Torque Arm xmember...

Very nice! Is the tank painted the same as the car?
