VooDoo - 1969 Camaro by GAP Racing
 
VooDoo is a 1969 Camaro that came to us for Vintage Air, Suspension Upgrade, new wheels, and a few other minor mods. It soon changed direction and turned into a complete build. We started making some body mods and noticed the car had a lot of filler in it. So then we had it media blasted. Once the car became a full build, we sat down with the customer to come up with a game plan. The car titled "VooDoo" will have a Twin Turbo BBC, Full DSE Suspension, Custom Cowl Hood that extends to the windshield, Goolsby Door handles, Custom rear spoiler, 67/68 Fuel filler, Raised fuel tank into trunk floor, DSE Mini Tubs, Forgeline wheels, and a bunch of other body modifications.

Big Thanks to Kris Horton for turning my vision into a really cool rendering.

Bad sponsor!! :twak: You've been withholding all of this awesomeness for all this time? You've got alot of catching up to do. :computer:

GAP Industries 01-01-2014 02:39 PM

Hey 214Chevelle. Looks like you have an SRG IRS chassis in your photos. I have a build Im about to post up you might like. The guys at SRG just finished an IRS chassis for a 1970 Chevelle we are doing on air ride

Dave95z28 01-01-2014 03:59 PM

How did you do the steering column at the firewall. I love how that really cleans it up. Can you provide some details?

Thanks,

David

Yes sir gentlemen!, looks great. Can't wait to see the other pics on the Camaro and the Chevelle

will69camaro 01-01-2014 09:19 PM

I'd say you need to slow down posting cars but knowing first hand what you haven't posted yet I'm sure you'll be able to keep this forum entertained a while.

Better later than never I always say. Great build

Finished up the rear spoiler and cut it open. Now I need to cap the ends off

Also did more work on the rear bumper. We cut it down and made it tight to the body. Also added a little length to it to make it fit the look we were going after. Still need to build the license plate area and raise it up so we have room for the center exit exhaust. The bumper is going to be molded into the car.

Started working on the extended rockers. They wrap around and attach at the pinch weld.

Just had to say, this build is looking amazing!

Question about tire size... What size rear are you going with?

will69camaro 02-10-2014 08:08 PM

Believe they're doing a 345/30/20 on a 20x13 GA3. I could be mistaken however.
