Iv never seen any one have the trunk open it to the back seat like that befor. Did they extend the rockers on that car.

68protouring454 11-03-2007 10:52 AM

yes ext rockers and no back seat, really killer looking, kenny or trav can tell you more

Steve1968LS2 11-03-2007 11:16 AM

I think it was one of the nicest Camaros at the show, very nice attention to detail.

RedRyder 11-03-2007 11:56 AM

The wheels are very unorthodox, but they work.

very cool

novanutcase 11-03-2007 12:03 PM

Picture doesn't do this car justice! It's just awesome. Like Rupp said...it's one of my favorite Camaros at the show.

notorious1970 11-03-2007 04:42 PM

Loved this car...looked sinister. I really like those wheels as well.

Since the car has a ZL1 crate motor, we were going for a moden COPO Camaro theme all around and the wheels were the icing on the cake. They definitely aren't everyone's cup of tea and non-Camaro people were scratching their heads but we like tio mix it up, right Kenny?

RECOVERY ROOM 11-03-2007 06:36 PM

The whole car was themed to be a modern,ZL1 styling look.some people didn't get it,some did.I thought the whole project turned out very good.:thumbsup:

customcam 11-03-2007 09:36 PM

i was looking forward on seeing this 69 and im very impressed
i love the whole look especially the interior and the wheels great job on all who worked on the car
any close ups of the wheels? :wow:

awr68 11-03-2007 10:24 PM

It is a nice car! and Travis it was great talking with ya!!

TonyL 11-04-2007 01:53 AM

My first camaro had the COPO type dog dish hubcaps and wheels, so I instantly got it. I think it looks awesome. :D

TravisB 11-04-2007 03:26 PM

Thanks for all the kind words everyone we thought overall the car did pretty good. Brought a lot of attention to Nitrous Express and there booth we couldnt have asked for a better spot or any better guys to deal with. Big thanks to the guys at NX.

Rockers were extended down to the pinch weld and fenders extended to match. there are lots of subtle mods to the car that are hard to catch. For intance the stock inner wheel wheels were all one peiced to the fender, spoiler three pieced, rear tail panel and firewall brushed and satin cleared.

**nice meeting everyone as well**

Sales@Dutchboys 11-04-2007 04:18 PM

Bad A$$ Travis and Kenny!

I love the final product, I know some people dont understand the wheels but without them the whole theme of the car wouldnt have gone, and those wheels just totally pulled everything together!:thumbsup:

Congrats.

Paul

close up of the wheels

Lenie 11-04-2007 06:34 PM

I really liked the car and wheels, different. Nice job.

Bill Howell 11-04-2007 09:20 PM

The fold down rear seat that opened up the interior and the billet dash were the coolest parts of the car to me. The dash was so understated but then when you really looked at it, it was off the hook. Emblems on the fenders were another nice touch also. No doubt, one of the nicest cars at the show. I made several trips by it to look at all the small details. Nice work guys.:thumbsup:

the ZL1 emblems were made by motorhead jewlery . we sent them a factory Z28 emblem to copy .

the fenders are alot of metal work ,i bet they weigh atleast 100lbs each .

Mean 69 11-05-2007 10:37 AM

Holy crap guys!!!! I really dig it, I'd love to have seen it in person, maybe sometime in the future. Glad to hear you were able to show it off at the SEMA show, you guys clearly worked your butts off on it, and it is a really cool car in my opinion. I had known about the theme of the car for months, so knew what to expect "somewhat," but this really exceeded my vision of what it would be like. Very slick, a really nice modernized rendition of the ZL1. Outstanding, I love the interior!

Terrific work, congratulations to you guys and the owner!
Mark

The car did awesome! It received a ton of attention and brought people to our booth. I just wanted to say thanks to Travis and Kenny for all of the hard work and effort. We couldn't have asked for a better show.

Car was great and it was good to talk with you in person. That 57 was sweet as well, any pics of it to share?

Musclerodz 11-05-2007 02:23 PM

I will have to say this. This Camaro was one of the best at SEMA. Tracy's interior was dead nuts on. It may have been more show than go, but I was very impressed with the little details this car had. How many noticed the brushed nickel trim? If I have to rob a bank, Tracy will be doing my Camaro when I get to that point. it was also great to hang with Kenny, Tavis and talk with Tracy about the car.

RECOVERY ROOM 11-05-2007 06:12 PM

Thanks for the kind words guys, it was a great project to work on,K D and Travis made the car easy to work on,some of the best wiring behind dash I've seen since we worked on Reactor last year,makes are job go easier when your in haulin ass mode before sema,Jason Rushforth was part of the planning on the whole project beginning to end.Still want a ride in it with the paddle shifters this summer:thumbsup:

rocketman 11-05-2007 06:45 PM

Evod did a great job making the wheels from my drawings to have them ready on time but I will be offering them in my line without the bowtie on the centercap very soon.

Jason@Driverz 11-06-2007 11:46 AM

Kenny/Travis,
Awesome work on this build. There are many subtle details that can be easily overlooked as stock until they are pointed out, and that is really what makes the vehicle so great to look at.

The use of nitrous is awesome, I can certainly see this on more cars in the future.

customcam 11-06-2007 03:01 PM
