That looks awesome... What would look real cool is if you could widen the front fenders to match... Then a wide body all the way around... How hard would that be to do?

But that Camaro has a real mean and unique look.... Definately keep posting, should look awesome when completed... Great work...

Here are some pics of some front fenders we pulled to gain front tire clearance.. 67 & 69 Camaros have a tapper towards the rear of the car & towards the front.. You will also see that I have a pic of cutting & pulling of the rear section only of the rear of the qtr to have a nice straight look from tire to wheel opening also attached is what the rear view on a stock Camaro..

I agree that front fenders need to pulled so that the car maintains some even porportions on the body lines.. I have had only one request for front fenders.. Track Rat! The car will look pretty damm cool

Isn't the White second gen with the Optima stickers on the doors the one that grenaded at Spring Mountain?

Man that 70 Z28 looks great Gonzo! I wondered what you did at th bottom of the doors as they are so close to the wheel well radius. Kinda did that to mine too. ALOT of test fitting and trial and error. But it was worth it.

Im running a 315-35-17 on the rear.

When I bought my 69 Camaro the PO had bulged the wheelwells,both ends. It looked great but the actual bodywork sucked and it all fell apart in no time. Plus he did not finish the inner wells,they were just hacked for clearance. Sorry, I don't have any pics-that was in 1975....any pics from then are drawn in wooly mammoth blood on a cave wall somewhere.....
