Dark gray and blacked out wheels...

There's no accounting for taste nowadays.

The Vette is totally cool. Our booth was located next to it, so got to check it out all weekend.

pavell 02-01-2010 09:53 PM

badass; the purists will be pissing their pants over that one :lol:

Mike69Cam 02-01-2010 10:01 PM

The builder is Jason from Timeless Kustoms Camarillo CA. Great guy and PT car builder. He's building my 69 Camaro right now.

Wow is right. Cool car.

CraigMorrison 02-02-2010 05:26 AM

Timeless had just called and told us this car was done - looks great! C6 front and tri 4-bar rear on one of our chassis. They are updating the shocks to Double-Adjustable Penske's for track day duty. I have a feeling that this car is going to get driven hard!

I'm guessing it's Cyber Grey as Compos Mentis noted it was a stock ZR-1 color. :thumbsup:

That's good news Craig. Hopefully we'll see your '60 on the same track with this '54.

Look forward to seeing a build thread on your '69 Mike.

I really like the mods they did on this car. http://www.streetrodderweb.com/featu...ial/index.html

Location is everything. :cool:

Mike69Cam 02-02-2010 06:17 AM

I'll post pics soon. He's media blasting now. Started as an Ebay purchase gone bad....fortunately, or unfortunately...Jason has educated me on this expensive hobby and all that can be done to these cars! So here I go...

1970camaroRS 02-02-2010 06:19 AM

Could have done without the LS9 beauty cover and the stupid clear window in the hood. Never understood that on the stock ZR1 either. Rest of the car is just sublime.

I've seen a few cars on the net using "cyber grey" and they don't look like this one :D

My search continues for a wicked grey for my 55'.....:geezer:

I hear ya. The pics posted here make it look a bit on the blue side. I wonder if it's from the camera flash?

ironworks 02-02-2010 07:01 AM

I have a few pics that don't look as blue. It was definitely dark gray.

Dagg, it wasn't the real color! :mad:

Thanks a lot, Rodger. :P

True. :D

Actually 'the 'fantasy gray' pics that I posted reminded me of the Maybach paint I think it was on 'Notorious'.

Congrats on your award Rodger. Your ride has probably increased the value of those trucks. :cool:

cdushane 02-02-2010 08:51 AM

I appreciate the thanks Tony even though it appears I've been duped into posting pics where the car color is fake! :mad:

I've got cyber grey on my car and it doesnt "pop" unless it is in direct sunlight or under indoor lighting.

According to the PHR article, Notorious uses a BASF shade called Tierra Del Fuego on the non "upward facing" panels.

That car is nasty as hell!! Could Corvettes take home SMOY back to back?! I sure hope he makes the trip back to Columbus to bring back a trophy to the West Coast!

Nice avatar, Skip! "It's GO time!"

Good point Jason, that would be something if back to back Vettes won the SMOY.

Oh the humanity!

Glad you liked the avatar Jason. It the least I, a humble Butterbean, could do for Izzy. :lol:

ccracin 02-02-2010 04:42 PM

I dig everything but the roll bars. Look too............................something. Can't pin it. Just grab me too hard. Other than that, sweet.

LMFAO!! Drop your purse, Honey and pick up that medicine ball!

customcam 02-02-2010 05:13 PM

Looks wicked! I just hope they take it to some events with a driver to take advantage of all those goodies it has
3000p, LS9, AM chassis, Brembo Ceramic Brakes...
Comp is on

Yes, that is one of the colors and they said the Maybach paint was also used.

I agree. Perhaps they didn't want to copy the AME 3G rollbars.

IndyNova 02-03-2010 07:42 PM

that is bad ass! plain and simple. i love the cyber grey, plus it's a factory gm color. I've been planning on that color for my Nova for awhile.

Bozeforged 02-04-2010 10:42 AM

This car has our ZEFORGED Mesh 3 piece wheels on it. I worked with Jason on building our wheels around those Huge Carbon ceramic brakes. The caliper overhangs 2.125" past the mounting surface. We built 19x10 front and 19x12 rear. What a sharp car! Just happy we could be of help.
