GAP Racing - Finished product for 2013 1968 Camaro
 
Thought I would post a previous build that we finished at the beginning of 2013. The car came to us as a roller that had already had the quarters replaced. The owner had an idea for the car that included a Big Block and stock suspension. The project evolved really quickly into a really neat car.

1968 Camaro :
429 Cubic inch LS3 Stroker from Texas Speed
4L60 Transmission and Converter from Circle D
Total Cost Involved front Subframe
Detroit Speed 3" Drop leafs w/ Afco Sliders
Detroit Speed Mini Tubs
Moser 12 Bolt Rear End, 3:73 Gear
Wilwood Brakes
Billet Specialties Spline Wheels 18x8 18x12
Mickey Thompson Tires, 345 Drag Radial on the rear
Anvil Close out Panel, and a few Carbon items
Pro Car Leather Seats
MCI Console
Vintage Air
March Pulleys
Ron Davis Radiator
Flush Mount Glass
Fesler Hinges, Handles, Driving Lights
Marquez Tail Lights
Custom 3" Exhaust

Here is the car as we received it

Stunning
 
Nice work Tim, great attention to detail. Love the tire and wheel sizing.

Cool color! 528 aint no joke!

will69camaro 12-30-2013 08:31 PM

Glad to see a project posted. Can't wait to see one of your big builds pop up here. Very happy to work closely with you guys and have you be a part of my project.

Onto the car. What brake pedal is that? I love that look. Car looks great in pics and just as good in person the few times I've seen it.

Not a big fan of red, but for some reason the deeper tone of red befits the car and I like it. Nicely done!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Vince@Meanstreets 12-30-2013 11:15 PM

Looking good GAP!

meenaggie 12-31-2013 07:42 AM

Will, those look like the pedals from Clayton Machine Works.

Tim, nice to see some of your other projects on the forum. I need to start a thread for my '68 camaro. 528 HP at the wheels is impressive for that combo and looks great as well!

will69camaro 12-31-2013 07:56 AM

Yep you are correct. Couldn't wait so I texted him to see what they were. May have just added another item to my build. Those pedals look amazing.

GAP Industries 12-31-2013 09:01 AM

Thanks for all the kind words. I am starting a build thread for all the large project we have going on. Just had to update my storage device for all the photos. I already spoke to Will on the pedals. They are a really nice piece.

Thank you Ovidiu.
I will start a thread for your car soon

What headers are you using with the TCI subframe? What diameter are the primaries? They appear to work great to put 528 to the ground through an auto.

They are Hooker Headers. I will get you the part number tomorrow. We tried a couple different sets to find one that fit correctly.
