Had to be a different car. I'm there now, and took a second look: the DSE Camaro has pretty nice panel fit and gaps. Actually, it's a testament to the chassis because the rear (door) gaps are just about show car tight, and there is no post-track-abuse chipping.
The 54 really should have at least been in that row (SMOY 5) today. If it wasn't here, Thrillbilly...
As for the Rad Rides 87, you have to see it to really appreciate it. In the words of a very experienced car guy (paraphrased), "it's right on the edge, but so far-so good." The only thing that bothers me about it (like I really matter) is the glass to metal ratio. If I were the owner I would go all the way for custom glass and tell Troy to start cutting on that roof.
. If he goes with his usual subdued finishing style, to balance the radical metal work, that could be a badass hot rod. A dark color would blend it all in, and let you see something new every time you look. Then, you start to realize
why it's so sweet.
