We're bringing out the Lou's Change '69 Camaro, and you are all invited to the unveiling Tuesday at 10:00 AM in the Toyo Tires Treadpass Display (Formerly Mopar Alley).

Awesome! We go through the old Mopar Alley every year, can't wait to see it.

We are bringing this house car project being built by Bryan Fuller. It features a Boss 9, AWD, and a G-force 5-spd.

Carbon Kustoms Ltd. will showcase the BFG Tire Bird in the MSD Atomic EFI booth.... The good folks at MSD/Atomic EFI and West Bend Dyno have been doing the SEMA thrash to make this possible.... Many thanks to a host of great industry supporters who have been extremely supportive as well.... The below picture was taken last week and West Bend will do a shake down run on the car at Road America next week prior to sending it off to SEMA

Steve Strope Debuting a Charger. I can't remember the year or the booth but I think it was a 69. He is e-mailing me some pictures, I will post them when I get them.

Glad to see your on this. Looking forward to some more of your insider information.:popcorn2:

Carbon Fiber vintage Mustang body ?

Damn, I'm just going to give up and go lie in the grave now. That was always my lottery dream.

Although, the way this hobby is going it wouldn't surprise me if CF bodies for popular cars are routinely available - at least every single bolt on part and roof skin if not the internal structure.

I sure hope Ring bros shares a lot of build photos of both of those cars, sometimes they can be a bit stingy on that.

Hey guys hers an update on Steve's cars. Here is an excerpt from his e-mail.

We are unveiling a '72 Camaro (#TTCamaro) in the HRE Wheels booth (just below Ford) at 11:20 on Tuesday morning. The car is in Aston Martin Tungsten Silver on HRE rims. It features a Nelson Racing Engines twin turbo small block with his new mirror image turbos, lots of carbon fiber, full touch screen operation from ISIS and a few mild tweaks here and there. We've taken more of the Grand Touring approach to this build in terms of it being a powerful, luxurious, long distance highway cruiser type of sports car.

We will also be pulling the cover off of a 68 Charger in the Sherwin Williams Automotive Finishes booth in North Hall at 1:30 on Tuesday. With a street/strip design, its our interpretation of a pre-production piece that could have been used by Dodge to promote the new for '68 body style. It has a big Hemi and the '66/'67 4-bucket interior with some other tweaks that maybe they could have been considering for the new car but just never made production.

grand touring... sounds cool!

What uprights are those on the Camaro ?

Kenny will be bringing 2nd Chance to Sema for DEI.

It is actually being built to be a driver so it's not really pro-touring or grand touring. Just touring in general as it will be my bike hauler for the Summer.

ps He has taken this simple driver to the next level. He is balancing a thin line between to nice and not wanting to drive it.

What Leno always says, "restore it to a 10 then drive it down to an 8..."




Jeff-

I like that idea.

We (HPI) are bringing our latest build, which we have kept a secret from everyone, to display for Paxton in their booth. I still won't show you what it is yet, but heres a build shot of the engine bay as a teaser. And sorry for being under a rock lately, its been all hands on deck for this build to get finished for SEMA and in a small company like ours, that means no time for extra curricular activities I guess?

http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...psc6ad4b37.jpg

Awesome. Can someone start a list of the booth # and car? Like a sticky?

Whatever it is, it's got a looong azz nose on it. That's a V10 and there's still a foot of room before the radiator....:confused18:


Jeff-

And it's a swept-wing radiator. :headscratch:

We sunk the Viper engine back into the passenger compartment a bit, all 10 cylinders start at the front axle centerline and extend rearward. That Paxton blower adds a ton of length to the front of the motor, and as it got added to the mix AFTER we positioned the motor, we had no choice but to run two double pass rads in parrallel, allowing us to angle them to fit them into the nose. Also up front is a charge air cooler, air to water core for the charge cooler, Snow meth injection components and tank, coolant surge tank, air box, a/c core, oil cooler etc etc. and all the plumbing!

It does have a long nose. I will post a build thread closer to reveal date.

We put alot of detail into this one. Hope you guys like it when you see it later!

how about this?

Ok I won't take up any more of this thread with pictures! I will save it for the build thread

Impressive Tyler :thumbsup:
