Default 70 Camar-low

Hello folks, I'm new to the site and really enjoy the things that i am seeing. I have been tinkering on cars professionally for the last 10 years. It's a small custom car shop here in the Northwest. I'm a non bias auto enthusiast. If it has an engine and tires I'm all over it. I own many vehicles and each one serves a purpose. I'm here on account of my current build which is a 70 Camaro. Guess the head line gives that away. I have grafted the subframe into a perimeter frame with a Tri 4link. I'm running a 4in ride height using coil-overs. It has been a tough learning curve, but has been a lot of fun at the same time. Definitely a daunting task. Look forward to some bench racing and hopefully a couple pointers. Having trouble sizing pics. There are some to follow soon as i figure this out

Welcome! Only ten miles as the crow flies from a great brake supplier.

Yes this is true. The guys over at Kore3 are right down the road from the shop I work at. I'm running their brakes front and rear. Very excited to see how they work. They are a wealth of braking knowledge. Oh yeah thank you for the welcome.

Yeah I have a lot of pics. I'm having a hard time downloading them because the files are to big. Do not know how to compress them. Also have I tried to import from my phone. No go. I'll have to do some research.

Open the photo in a picture editor, I use Microsoft Picture Manager on my computer, select "picture" from the task bar, then select "resize" in the pull down that appears.

I use one of the predefined sizes, I usually use 640 x 480, and then save as a smaller file.

Thank you DETON8R for the input. Took me a little bit to figure it out. Looks like I'm good to go now. More pics to come.

That is some awesome work in the frame. Looks like a body drop to lower the CG and a nice stance too!! Good to see custom frame and suspension builds out there. I know there are some great vendors on the site putting out unbelievable products for the hobby/sport, and diversity and innovation in one-off builds always makes the sport better.

Is it going to be a track day car and street driver? Looks like it will be one BAD A$$ ride whatever you use it for.

Pleasure was mine helping with the photo reduction.

I'm lovin the stance.

It looks like you used the stock from stub and build the rear section. Cool idea and a great way to save money
