Oh I've seen yours Tommy. I'm on muscle rides and pt.com I love it. I figured the rear wheel wells were a problem. Thank you for the insight as that's the first place I was going to go to see about gaining some room.

My vote goes to Mark Gile's '78 Camaro:

I think for overall performance and custom fabrication Detroit Speed and Engeneering's second gen takes it.

A close second would be Dale Jr's Camaro.

There is also the greening auto company Camaro.

hmmmm that picture of the DSE test car has it sitting lower than I thought. Considering my rear wheel wells are bigger than a camaros, I should be able to put my TA that low no problems. Question is can I do it with leaf springs in the rear? Anyone know the answer to that? Actually, can my front suspension even go that low without using their subframe?

To answer my own questions though, I think Giles car is the most radical. That article calling it NASCAR touring is a really good way to sum it up.

Dale Jr's Camaro is more fabricated and modified than Kyle's car. And if you REALLY want to go for that standard, Mark Giles car absolutely takes it. I know because I sat in it.

Here's a couple more shots too.

The work on this car is insane. I wish I had a better camera and was able to take more shots of it. And it's awesome how it burns your eyes when you're cruising behind him.

Mark Giles' car is sweet, for me it just looks too much like a race car. Tubular chassis, fabricated aluminium dash, full roll cage.

I still rather the DSE Camaro.

It's just my taste in cars, I like performance in a stock looking car. JMHO

Totally not putting Giles Camaro down.

I agree with you 100%. I want a car to look like a car, not a race car, but with all the performance.

Not knocking Mark Giles car, it's just my taste. He does have some nice fab work there.
