Build Pics of "GRUMPY" Jenkins tribute Camaro
 
2 Attachment(s)
Does anybody know where I could find build pics of the "Grumpy" Jenkins tribute camaro built by Roger Burman at Lakeside Rods & Rides. It has to be one of the coolest 67-68 camaro builds I have seen lately. I believe I came across a website a week ago that had build pics, I cannot locate now and could use some help. I have tried the shops website and they do not have any pictures of this car yet.
Thanks,

I don't have build pics, but here is a link that has that car and a BUNCH more from the Columbus show. (You just have to go through the pages to find them.)

We (Roadster Shop) built the chassis and did a lot of the early metal work. Lakeside Rods took it from there and finished the car... and did a killer job with the finished product.

Here is a link to our web site with all of the work that we did on the car. There are not any good pictures, but this was the pilot car for our complete Camaro chassis as well.

If you are looking for specific pictures, let me know and I might be able to find something.

Thanks guys. The Roadster Shop was the link I was looking for. What an amazing build. I love to see that people are starting to take the 67-68 camaros to the next level. Here is another link I came across with quite a few pics of the "Grumpy" Jenkins camaro, http://flashesofspeed.smugmug.com/

Does anybody know what size rear tire and wheel is on the Jenkins car? If I were to guess, I would say it is a 335/30/ZR20 Michelin PS2 on a 20x12 wheel.

They are 335/30/ZR20 Michelin PS2 on a 20x12 wheel

This was a pretty cool car. The owner had a lot of unique ideas and his main focus was to do a 67 because there were not too many built to this level.

Does anybody have finished interior pictures? From the rendering by Eric, it looks pretty cool. Another question, is the front and rear glass flush mounted? I cannot tell by the pictures I have seen thus far but looks like they might have custom made a wider flange to flush mount it. Not like what was used on project "Evade".

I don't have any great pictures of how it was done, but basically, we added metal to the window opening so it met the stock glass. We fabbed a 90 degree bend and formed it to the shape of the window opening to take up the space between the glass where the stock molding would go. Then cut a new flange for the glass to mount to. Welded everything up and metal finished it.
