Assembly has progressed on the chassis in this picture and the body is ready to be mated to it for the final time.

The inner fender required a minor notch to clear the upper shock mount.

The rear frame bracket bolts up the the original rear leaf spring mount in the stock sub rail.

A little branding!

And the completed product outfitted with a new set of Forgeline ZX3P's with Matte black centers and polished hoops that really set the car off. We were extremely pleased that the customer took our recommendation to replace the directional billet wheels with the new Forgelines.

Absolute proof that wheels and stance do make the car. In this case a Roadster Shop FAST TRACK Camaro chassis and Forgeline ZX3P Wheels

From a dated, poor handling, average cruise night car into a serious pro-touring machine in just over 200 hours!

200 hours as in 5 work weeks or as in 200 hours of labor?

That would be 200 BILLABLE shop hours.... which in my opinion, is a smoking fast great deal, by a very capable shop.

Nicely done guys! It looks great and we know it'll drive great as well.

Great transformation. Amazing chassis.

We had a chance to scale the car at the end of last week. Good looking numbers for a car that we had no intention of watching the weight during the build. SBC/T350, full chassis, A/C, stereo, large stainless tank, 75 lbs of Dynamat, stock interior... 3,348 lbs.

Unfortunately we did not weigh the car as it arrived, so I do not have a good "before and after". But we are still very happy with the "after".
