Default Sam Posey Edition 2008 G5 Challenger SEMA '08 - Sneek Peeks!

Hey guys,

Thought I'd share a couple pics from the build from a couple of weeks ago. The Car is now Sublime Green, stripes are on, 77s are on and it's starting to come together. The new tooled front and rear bumpers are looking good. One of the pics below is the T/A hood scoop in the molding process. Chris has an uncanny ability to take my 2D renderings from a sketch to prototype part to production molds! Bryon at Arizona Speed and Marine is one heck of a fabricator. Check out his work in the pics on the form fitted roll cage and side exit exhaust - through the BODY! Also check out the painted trunk lid - eye popping color! I will try to put up some pics each week. I should also have the News page up with more info on specifications, sponsors, etc.
Group 5 Limited, Sam Posey, and the Sam Posey G5 Challenger will be in Hot Rod Alley this year at Booth #23679. Make sure you stop by to see Sam and the Challenger!
When I have some progress pics to show Group 5 Ltd. in conjuntion with Team Performance http://team-ppi.com/ will have a second Challenger, the Twin Turbo G5/R Challenger in the Snow Performance Booth #25157.

Here's another pic showing the Team Performance G5/R TT and the G5 Sam Posey Challenger partially disassembled and ready for new tooled fascias and various other modifications.

I've seen the rendering and it looks awesome!

Are there plans to have it photographed or displayed along side the Ken Epsman-owned Trans-Am racer?
