Fesler Built new 1969 BB Camaro project

[Vegas69]

To say one is nicer than the other is shooting from right field. Without seeing them both in person thats impossible to judge. Personal taste comes into play as well. Both fantastic builds and would be proud to own either.

On the other had, unless someone specifically states they're looking for critique, maybe you should keep it to yourself.

Perhaps less people will post pics of their projects in fear of the "experts" giving their 2 cents.

JMO.

my dad said this to me at one point in my life "If we all had the same taste we would all be after the same woman" I think it looks killer!!!!

Anybody willing to drag that car from AZ to OH at nearly $5/gallon deserves a handshake and a thank you for making the show that much better. It's already an incredible show and picking a Top 5 will be extremely difficult regardless of who you think should win and making a commitment to bring another high end car all the way across the Country for us to look at deserves respect no matter what he brings home on Sunday.

I will be by Friday for my handshake and to say thank you. I suggest more guys with and especially guys without cars shooting for the Top 5 do the same because the show wouldn't be as great without cars and committed people like this.

Drive carefully, guys

Just went thru the whole thing. Nice car.

I'm glad you used the original subframe! (since it works just FINE!) It reflects a discussion that was had in the suspension forum that ended in a war at some point between people that like (can) to throw cash for nothing and people with more sense than cash.... I like the fact you're showing it can be done and how!

Eric, the rails are competition engineering (unless i'm in error, which i would really doubt) and go for about 250$, you need to use the comp eng weld in connectors or build your own too (Custom connectors are MUCH cleaner) but the frame rails are nice.

Chris, since you used the rails, how did you attach the front point of the lower suspension arms? I have seen no pictures of that?

Again, Nice car!

Very well said Jason. I'll see you guys there! I can't wait. You would think I was 5 waiting for Christmas morning!

Hey everyone we are at the Iowa Goodguys show and I have to say that I really appreciate all the comments good and bad.I look forward to meeting any and all of you at these two shows "Iowa and Ohio" Everyone keep this in mind, I am not only the builder but I am also the photographer so it would have been very easy for me to shoot this car at an very different angle to hide the exhaust, given the car a false representation. I did not do this because it is what it is and we are very happy with the way it turned out and no matter who the builder or what the build there is always more that could have been done than there is money to pay for. I will post some shots of the first show tomorrow. Thanks
