Nice ride!
 
I like the Moroso valve covers

Will it be at the Year One show? Under lock and key?

I was just wondering the same thing...

Looks like the VA set in black. I didn't like the old school alternator fan, but it doesn't look bad in black. No tensioner and compressor cover in the pics tho. I like it.

Stuart Adams 03-11-2008 08:38 AM

Engine and compartment look very good. Nice headers.

DDY RCKT 03-11-2008 09:05 AM

Oh so very very nice!!!

cjrolke 03-11-2008 09:14 AM

looks great

just make sure something is done so it dosent disappear

zbugger 03-11-2008 09:20 AM

Very nice. I think if it does go anywhere it's gonna need some armed guards to protect it. That and a Lojack and a Snitch.

Oh, and I think that is the Vintage Air setup. It looks pretty clean, actually. I kinda like it.

GHOSTDANCER 03-11-2008 09:29 AM

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

7TSS 03-11-2008 09:33 AM

Niiiiiiiiice!! If you don't mind my asking, how does the clear stay on the bare metal without worry of peeling off??

Alex396ss 03-11-2008 09:45 AM

Cool!

Alex

TravisB 03-11-2008 10:39 AM

Looks like another killer car. I reall like the engine compartment and engine.

I think you should talk to Bret baout letting you drive it to arkansas...boat season is right around the corner. :thumbsup:

2 barrels of 1 1/8oz 6 shot though cylinder bore chokes. Anything within 20 feet will look like mowed grass :_paranoid

Really nice, any chance of it being at the Pleasanton good guys show in a couple weeks?

It is Vintage Air.

I know that there is a special coating on top of the bare metal, but I don't know much about it. I'll email John over at Precision Coachworks and ask him.

I just got an email from John.

"DuPont makes a clear metal etch called Metalok that allows the clear to stick to the bare metal it is very $ - but it lets you sleep at night.

John"

I know this is my first post, but I've been a lurker for a long time.

Anyway, my name is Scott, and I'm the graphics/web guy for Air Ride Technologies. I thought I would jump on and let "y'all" (I am in Atlanta) know that we have new photos and even a short video clip of the Velocity Camaro on our site.

You can follow the link on the home page to see the latest:
