Here's what Roger has been cruising for the past several years. Although it drove fantastic and took home some show trophies it just wasn't the right combo for gettin' jiggy wit it at track days. Unfortunately the street tires on the big wheels just didn't grip with the massive torque of the blown big block 427. It also had one of our original subframes and torque arms and has missed out on some of the small upgrades in the name of better performance we've made over the years.

One lucky person got a great deal on the whole subframe, engine, and wheel & tire package as it got sent back to NYC to become part of a '69 Convertible Camaro. Our shop lead tech Jeremy managed to talk Roger out of the torque arm system to install in his '67 Camaro, more on that car later. Like a new car, in our shop we've found pulling the complete subframe and engine together out from the bottom is so much easier than pulling the engine through the engine bay. Fantastic way to do it when you're swapping in one of our Pro Touring or new ExtReme subframes.
