Lateral Dynamics 70 Camaro Project Car - Lateral-g Forums

Mean 69 · #1 01-27-2012, 11:14 AM

Moving out a project car to make room for a new purchase. Many of you have seen the car on the cover of Camaro Performer's magazine a few years back. The car has been painted by Best of Show Coachworks, and is stunning - a brilliant metallic red that is extremely striking. Straight body with fresh panels, Lateral Dynamics 3 Link rear suspension installed, mini-tubed to accept 335 tires. Car is a roller, no interior, drivetrain, or brakes. Will update with a list of items later this weekend, as well as some pictures of the build and recent shots as well. Market for cars is weak right now, everyone knows that, so the asking price is a very realistic $20k, you couldn't touch the car for this price if wanting to build a new car. I was compelled to close shop a few years back and as such, this is one of the few Lateral D second gens in existence. If you want to run with Jim Shipka's One Lap Camaro, Steve Rupp's Bad Penny, and beat the paint off of virtually every other car out there, this would make an extremely compelling package to finish. Car is in San Diego area. If finishing a project car isn't what you are capable of, I can certainly help by advising a highly capable shop that can finish the car for you, and insure that the remainder of selected components will result in a extremely capable and pleasureable car. All the hard work is done, just needs to be assembled and enjoyed.

Please PM for more information, and include an e-mail address that will accept photographs.

Dang, every time you sell a car, I find myself wanting to buy it. I have enough parts all I would need would be an engine. Ah, who am I kidding, I already said that when I bought your Mustang.

This car is worth every bit of the 20K being asked. I'm sure someone is going to step up soon!

Mark,

In case you missed it, here is a shot of a 12 bolt Lateral Dynamics 3 link in action, at the 2011 Targa Newfoundland. My driver is coming out of a corner in a residential sector of Gander. The suspension really works, especially in the rain !

Good luck with the sale and thanks again for the excellent design.

That..... Is..... Completely..... FANTASTIC!!!! I hadn't seen that shot. I recall working with Matt on the rear end one Sunday afternoon, was the only 12 bolt 3 Link we made, so the team could fit into a specific rule/class for the Targa. That picture put a smile on my face and has me giggling all afternoon, thanks for sharing, and thanks for the endorsement!!!! Glad to see you are enjoying the car and product.

Thanks, really, thanks a million!

Oh Vince...... There is another 3-Link project just waiting for you, can you hear it calling????

Did not want to hijack the thread, but I guess it will be called a bump instead.

My upper link has the pinion angle at 2 degrees up since my engine is two down. We had to cut the link and shorten it because, as we were warned, mine was a prototype "one off", and may not be as perfected as the Ford 9 inch version.
