Well the girlfriend and I went down to Unique yesterday and will return for pics of the camaro next tuesday (shop was shut down for the day and no pics without the peoples consent). Monday there are 3 magazine photoshoots of the car. In their shop there was atleast 10 GT500E's and 3-4 GT350SR's. They also had a 911 that was just parked (presidents car that he hasn't driven in years), a DB9 which the presidents wife got trading a car behind his back LOL, a 69 Shelby (original) 56 big window chevy pickup, a 69 "test mule" where they test all their new stuff, a shelby cobra (not sure if it's a kit or real, i think it's a kit, barret jackson jr's own 69 convertible camaro, and a 68 camaro with a chassis engineering front clip with a supercharged LS2, baer brakes, their "exotic" rear suspension, the works. It was alot of fun to go check out the stuff and talk with the owner. Definitly worth checking out. They also had a Foose designed 05 stang that is going to see a 3000 car production run and be sold in dealerships (looked bad ass). The camaro run is going to be kept limited production (I believe i heard 250 cars). Also pricing on the camaro starts at 139k, that's with a ZZ4 basic buildup. From there you can option it with a LS2 with an optional supercharger on that. For the even more extreme there is the car built like the one that was unveiled, 189k is what i heard and it's a 572 fuel injected 650hp motor. Colors wont all be orange and grey they're looking into other colors. I'm going to try and get them to consider marquez tail lights as it looks funny to see a car with all this custom work (that looks alot better in person but not my favorite first gen i've seen by far) then walk back and see these old style tail lights. I think the modern style lights would set that car off.

Anyway if there is anything else you guys want to know there is more i'm sure i'm forgetting. Also like i said no pics for now but hopefully next week if i can get off work and get there in time.

William
