I am happy to report that Johns car arrived safely at Jims and should begin the transformation process in about a week or so. Pretty stoked to see how things progress.













Now that the car is in the surgery room, Jim can get started.









John...thanks for allowing me to be part of the process. I am looking forward to seeing what you and Jim do.

I almost forgot I own a Camaro! Thanks for all the help Curtis! I talked with Jim he's going to take a few days to relax after getting Curtis' car out. Then he'll start work on mine. Should be fun!

Default Things are happening!

Well we've been busy around here between the new house, outfitting my new shop, and oh yea I got married, somewhere along the line Curtis hauled my car up to Jim in Stockton. Jim knew I was slammed with work and the wedding so he was holding out on me (as if I wouldn't want an update on my Camaro!!!) he's started in the rear of the car, and is moving his way forward.

He's been working on the tailpan, and the decklid trying to get the gaps right. From what I've gathered Jim is not a huge fan of the panels I selected. I'll leave that out the quotes as I don't want to be booted from the forum.

I'll shut up now








he ended up welding the seam up completely because the metal is so thin.

I know what you are all thinking, this project died again.

NOPE Jim has been crushing it, He is almost finished with metal work.

I keep throwing a wrench in the spokes and adding work.

Added in a full roll cage with custom door bars, we are waiting on the delivery of the Anvil Lower Valance, and I need to find a company I want to use for Flush mount Glass so we can fit that.

I've seen Feslers stuff and heard of a few other people who I have reached out to. Hopefully I get some word back soon.
