My 69 made July CP F-body Garage!
 
Nice surprise to find my '69 in F-body garage this month. Thanks for the ink Steve!

I guess this means I have to get off my ass and come up with a build thread and maybe even a name for her. After I had to all but stop work on the project for a few months, the guys at Best of Show have been given the green light to move forward with the build. Anyway - I'll save the details for the build thread.

Thanks again Steve - Camaro Performers rocks!

My July Camaro Performers just arrived, cover torn off but it arrived. Page 13 features letters to the editor and actually has a pic of Jackass.:D Except the point of the letter is about how badly Jackass was done, The body panels do not line up at all and the wheels look like clown shoes:willy: I cracked up when I read it. Nick, Steve, nobody has mentioned it. I have these visions of Nick and Steve worrying that I will be pissed so they aren't saying a thing. At least you guys could have set me up and said my car was in the magazine again. I even called Stielow and told him what a P.O.S he built. :cheers:

Hey, we put your car in the Top-10... what do we know!

You should see the wacky letters get.. some people freak at wheels over 15 inches.

No biggie Charley.... Doug (DFRESH) will happily share a couple of quarts of the panel gap spray he has on order.

As for the IDIOT that wrote the comments to the mag... His daily driver is probably a Yugo and the '84 "maro" he's been working on for 15 years is still sitting on cinder blocks "out back".


And! Way to go Gandolf! :cheers: :woot:

He's not idiot. He just has a different opinion. I'm sure if i trashed the carbon brakes and put something smaller on I could come up with a wheel he likes.

Congrats Gandalf! I also thought the armchair comments on Jackass were pretty funny. Those clown shoes look pretty good to me! :lol:

Charley, I wanted you to be surprised ... Surprise! Your car is in the mag again. I figured you'd dig the "Clown Shoe" reference.
I can't believe we put a car on the cover with such terrible body panel alignment. We'll have to be more careful when we pick cars to shoot next time. Hehe...

Stielow is my hero... Now, if I could just get him to turn in that fuel delivery story for the magazine ... J/K Mark...
