GFDC TWIST MACHINE SEMA CAR Update
 
I wanted to give a little update of our car going to SEMA this year.
The owner threw some last minute changes in pace that have pushed us back a little.

As we stand now the engine from LME is underway , Its a LSX block 440 cube with a Kenne Bell supercharger. This car will also have Big Stuff 3 on it along with a new Dash assembly that not released yet ......:unibrow:

Twist Machine / Bowler transmissions is providing us with a sweet 6/8 speed paddle shift trans unit .
The body work mods are now about complete and the car is scheduled to be painted with in 1 month . After that its the fun part , assembly time.

Here are a few pics .. enjoy.

Man, That's nice!:yes:

I have had the same idea to move out the parkinglights more to the corner like you have done there. I think it would look a lot better like that. :thumbsup:

Thanks for the coments Brian ,
We moved the lights out so that the front will have access to the heat exchanger for the intercooled Kenne Bell blower. We are waiting for it to arrive so we can build the center in and make it look smooth and unique.

The Engine will produce about 850-1000 hp .

ArisESQ 07-29-2007 05:06 PM

that looks fantastic. i REALLY like that little scoop you guys put on the front there. looks awesome!

cant wait to see some completed pics.

James OLC 07-29-2007 05:10 PM

:thumbsup: Looks great - can't wait to see it at SEMA!

black2002ls 07-29-2007 10:18 PM

I love the renderings. Going to be a nice ride when its done :thumbsup:

130fe 07-29-2007 10:44 PM

:thumbsup: Looks good Jason.

L8ONBRAKE 07-29-2007 11:16 PM

That rendering looks killer!

TravisB 07-29-2007 11:22 PM

lol Im glad your painting your s a diff color so no one gets them confused, our car has some smiliar stuff. Very nice Jason

ProdigyCustoms 07-30-2007 04:55 AM

Looks badd ass man! I love the bumper treatment and one piece fenders. Have thought a lot about smoothing the cowl cover, I just hate the idea of all the water off the windsheild running down the firewall like a waterfall.

HRBS 07-30-2007 06:59 AM

This one is, no doubt on my "list" to see at SEMA.
Nice job Jason :thumbsup:

mtuck 07-30-2007 07:22 AM

That is very nice. You guys know how to build a nice car, and inspire me to work harder on mine. I hope my next project will be half as nice as yours.

XcYZ 07-30-2007 07:53 AM

Sweet. More pics, please. :yes:

Steve Chryssos 07-30-2007 09:03 AM

The style bears a striking resemblance to vintage Yamaha TZ's--which is an awesome, legendary competition scheme.

jimhamptons 07-30-2007 09:04 AM

Looks Great Jason!

Stuart Adams 07-30-2007 09:53 AM

Looking good. SEMA is coming quick, looking forward to seeing it there.

TA219 07-30-2007 01:21 PM

Wow, that looks great so far!

I am excited to see how the concept camaro header air scoop turns out. i have a spare panel that i have thought about experimenting on.

Payton King 07-30-2007 02:19 PM

I would like to see more
 
I can't wait to see how the front splitter comes out. I have toyed with the idea for years and never got around to it.

I like the color scheme as well

Musclerodz 07-30-2007 02:50 PM

Looks good, can't wait till SEMA to see it finished. I have the same plans for my wiper cowl with an added twist.

Dayum. That's nice. My liking of the '69 is starting to catch up to my liking of the '68. That's not supposed to happen. Going to be another car to drool over though.

The gold wheel centers really look great too - so much so I went back and forth for my car between gold and black, chose black, now maybe need to change to gold before they head to anodize at the end of the week :D I also love the well designed splitter and the NASCAR-style simple spoiler - it is the simplest rear spoiler design but just looks awesome.

L8ONBRAKE 08-01-2007 12:09 AM

That splitter looks killer, who makes it?

Bandit Ls-1 08-01-2007 01:02 AM

that looks badass man, not a big fan of white but man that looks awesome!, the splitter looks sick where can i find one?

vinz68 08-01-2007 05:59 AM

can't wait to see it done:hail: nice job

Steve1968LS2 08-01-2007 12:21 PM

Very nice looking Jason! :thumbsup:

I like the nod to the new '09 Camaro with the front valance scoop, love the paint scheme and you managed to make a white car look badass.

We need some updated pics.. NOW!

lol

steemin 08-02-2007 01:55 PM

Jason,
Another great job of laying down an awesome design..
Keep the pics coming.

I was thinking the same thing. You start to get jealous of the rides they put together for their customers! :yes:

We'll be building ten similar front splitters to match our rear spoilers.

bigtyme1 08-04-2007 08:15 PM

You know I'm thinking, its time for you to start you own TV Show. You know, wherer you take somebody's car and do a complete G Machine Make over. We could call it Muscle car Make over. And I know who your first customer could be:unibrow: You and Frank could tag team and be done in 7 days!!

I'll be giving Twist Machine a ring tomorrow about a front/rear spoiler combo for my '69.

This is the best of PT/G-Machine tech - function and form together. Very cool.

===========================================

Is there a place on your website where more pictures can be seen of both the front spoiler and the rear, either on or off a car?

Thanks,

Ty

Steve Chryssos 08-07-2007 05:39 AM

Ty,
We won't be adding spoiler pix to the Twist Website until well after SEMA. The link below will take you to rear spoiler pix on my personal website. And no front splitter pix until they reach a similar stage of development to the rear pix shown.

after seeing the pictures here of the camaro -I had to stop by jason's on my way back from louisville this weekend - Jason and his great crew of guy's took time out of their busy day to make me feel welcome and show me around - the Camaro is looking great along with other project in the shop - jason is really an up an coming builder and for all you guy's who missed foose when you could afford him don't miss out on jason at g-Force Design

Steve Chryssos 08-08-2007 08:06 AM

I agree. I would very much like to see Hot Rod or Popular Hot Rodding do an "Upcoming Builders" article. Give guys like Jason Huber and some of the other "No Name" builders the credit they deserve. I see and work with a number of builders who are working their asses off to build quality cars and grow their businesses. The young builders, in particular, blow me away. It's like "Whoa! Where'd you learn that?..." Focus on their shops and under construction pix.

Jason Huber, Jake Parrott, Rodger Lee, Michael Serafine, Kenny Davis, Pasqual Marquez--it's a long list. :hail:
