Perfect! That ought to fit in the Ford LTD just fine.

Sweet!!.. of course you would!!.............. where's the bottle holder?.

Was the first thing purchased off our registry was this. The only thing I added to that list. :D

Of course it came in red and I had it returned for the requisite Viper Blue.

:lol:

Ha.. he'll be able to reach up to the Nascar roll bar clamp bottle holder I am hoping.

My friend had one for his child when he was still in a car seat. They are great car seats.

Good to see that someone in the Gordon family will be in a harness soon. :action-smiley-027:

So we're down to baby seat thread updates now? At least put it in the car and take a pic, willya :twak:

With a name like Recaro I would think so. :D

Someone's gotta do it. :waveflag:

Patience my friend.... after a 6 year Camaro build I would think you would be in tune with that word. :action-smiley-027:

Hey look something new to look at :animated_bye_bye_em

Try and stay calm, take one of these and check back in month or three.

Awesome! But baby's going to complain about lack of lateral support and want a Kirkey.

Don't short change your project.......... I'd say at least "The Most Bad A$$ In The Sub Division"

Al! Hysterical!! FTW

Well if he does, that little blue Recaro can come out and he can sit directly in the 16" Kirkey beneath it!

Strangely enough, there are more houses technically "on my street" than in my "subdivison".... figure that one out. :headscratch:

So I search for and find this thread. Baby seats for a race car? :)

Any updates from the Fab53 skunk works? I texted Brett trying to distract him by coming out to Adam's on Tuesday but I didn't hear back. Maybe he is hard at work on your car!

Ha look how far we've come Chad since we met up with our "simple" SBC leaf spring Camaros years back.. :D

I did fly down to Fab53 last Saturday for about 6 hours to make some design decisions and work with Brett on some things. He is further along already and I know he is chugging on my car (in between dirt bike hot laps of course).

Some recent pics.... these were version 1 of the flares.. they already look different than these pics. :)

Sweet! progress pics. Sorry I missed you while you were down last weekend.

The flares are cool. Dfresh gave me a sneak peek at them on his phone earlier today. I can't wait to see this bad boy at a track!

Yeah simple Camaros on leaf springs. If someone tried to tell me what I was going to end up doing with my Camaro when I bought it.... I probably wouldn't of bought it lol.

Yeah it's been awhile man and at least one of us got his car back together. :cheers:

I know exactly how you feel. :lol:

Hell yeah Dave,
That's what I'm talkin about. Just another step closer. I know you were hoping to be done for your B-day but that's good progress right there.:thumbsup:

So Awesome!!!!! more more more!

Very Nice.

Looking good Brett!!

Are there fabrication pictures of how those flares were built ?

Yep here's some.

That's wild Dave. Thanks for posting those.

whoa! cool. So the flares are all metal then? I just assumed Brett made em from fiberglass.

:y0!: IS IT RUNNING YET!!!!!!!??????

those are just the supports to make the buck then the mold for the glass final. The other shot looks like glass to me.

Very nice. I'm digging them.

Ah ok. Makes sense. Shows how much work goes into making a good fiberglass part.

Yes. Thanks for asking. :D

some flare and sheet metal updates

Nice progress Dave! I'm really digin the flares, those give it some real attitude to go with the beast under the hood.

Is that just a sample??

Lemme make a call...

Car is looking good Dave, one of these days I got to go down there and take a look at it. I might have to get Brett to do my flares in the future:secret:
