'67/'68 Camaro
It's always nice to be fought over
But seriously, I will be needing a '67 or '68 Camaro for a fitment model as I get a little further along on the follow up to the '69 rear spoiler we are making. I do have access to my wife's cousin's '67, but I don't want to wear out my welcome with him. I would greatly appreciate whom ever wants to work with me, and there will be plenty of opportunities for upcoming parts. Just PM me and we can sort it out. Thanks!
Best, MaTT

hidden wipers
Ty,
That's an interesting idea. Kind of like a lot of the '70s GM cars where the hood came back to the windshield and flared up t allow a gap for the wipers and the venting for the heater/AC (I wonder why no cars use that anymore?). It would be as if you grafted the cowl panel to the back of the hood and made it one piece and flared it up in the back. Heck, you might as well graft the header panel on the front too, that would give you a long hood like the second gen Camaros. The only problem I see is that the hinge position might have to change in order for the back of the extra long hood to clear the cowl and windshield when it is opened. If it does clear, you wouldn't have that safety slot under the hood to look through in case the hood flew open while you're driving. That would take some experimenting, but it would make for a streamlined look without so many gaps. Another thing that might be hard to get around is that the wipers sit proud of the surface of the cowl panel, so they may have to be repositioned deeper into the cowl so you don't end up with a really high hood near the windshield.

No problem Matt, wouldn't mind running some of your parts in one of the magazines (new product section).. I would think it would be a perfect fit for Camaro Performers magazine.. since you make Camaro parts and such. lol
Given how my car seems to be a target on the roads do you have any body panels made of nerf?

Matt,
When will the full CF decklid/ spoiler be available? I am interested. 52" rear length may be exactly what i am looking for.
Let me know.
Jim

deck lid & spoiler
Jim,
I'm working on getting the shape and fitment just the way it should be before I ramp up production. If all goes well, I should have production parts by December, maybe sooner. Did you get your cowl panel yet?

Matt,
The cowl panel did arrive at my Parent's house. Thanks, they sent me some pics. It looks great.
Do you still think you might have the smooth underside cf hood out in December? I will be your first customer once you make those available for pre-order. Same for the decklid/ spoiler combo.
What is your priority of work for upcoming new parts? I know you are busy, but I ask because I am prepared for paint in December and want to know if the smooth underside hood isn't going to happen in the next few months.
Have you had any other requests for the smooth underside hood? To my knowledge there is only 1 other company making them. I think you will sell quite a few, especially if the price is in line with your other products.
Talk to you later,
Jim
