it is sold.

Spoken from the man with one of the simplest exterior cars we have done and the most requested car to duplicate!

OK, so time to update. We have been crushed at Prodigy Customs finishing (4) projects, (3) 69 Camaro's all of which are headed to RTTHs for their debut. We also have been readying the Bull Run Racer for Bull Run 2010 with a new Magnum 6 speed and lots of tinkering, and Lucy is ready to kick much ass this year!

John has been working on the Isis System and plumbing of a absolutely gorgeous black 69 Camaro we are finishing for a member. This is one of the cars coming to Pigeon Forge. While we have all been slamming on the other cars we have been working out the final details and sources for Project Unfair preparing for the eminent thrash.

Tomorrow is a big day for the project. I am flying to New Jersey to meet with Pat Musi to finalize the details of our engine build. Our RHS Block is already at Musi's shop. Our Mast Motorsports 6 bolt heads are shipping this week. The national sales manager and my close friend Tom Razzanno (who's SB2 headed SBC 427 68 Camaro convertible we are finishing right now) will be at the meeting as Manley will be supplying their killer rotating assembly. With the bulletproof list of parts and Musi building the motor, John and I are very comfortable of our power goals will met and the durability of the monster. I still cannot believe we are building a car and Pat Musi is building the engine...pinch me!

John has our traction control system in hand and is working through that. Our Holley fuel injection is on the way to John (exciting stuff for sure).

Last week Michael got the rear clip / suspension in the car. The installation went really well. The frame rails fit the floor perfectly. This week Michael will be doing the tubs and outer body sheetmetal. Then Unfair goes to John who has boxes and boxes of header and exhaust material from Cone Engineering. We are familiar with the quality of Cone Engineering products as we used them on Larry's MotiV8tr. At John's he will be doing pre wiring and plumbing while we wait for our drivetrain to arrive. Unfair will head back to Prodigy in a few weeks for body / Paint and get ready for final assembly. Things are gong to move very quickly now so the update will come faster.

Here is some automotive jewelry for you


The Art Morrison sports a slightly relocated Woodward rack. Our front pulley sits BEHIND the rack the way we have it set up. Michael should put in the rack this week.


I just love calling it our 5 link! I think I am unnaturally attracted to the rear suspension!


The boys are Xing out the rear clip in preparation for welding.


I was extremely impressed with how well the Morrison frame rails fit the floor. Just awesome quality stuff!


We have a little closeout work to do around the multi link brackets.

It's been a while since I went through this whole thread, but I imagine you don't intend to keep the backseat?

And btw, Frank, there is nothing wrong with being attracted to rear suspension, I have professed my love for many an automotive component in my life...no one can understand!

Looking great and man that AME frame REALLY fits well!

Very nice.

looks great... but i dont see how swapping from 3 to 4 links would differ from relocating the front link attachment point in the 3 link... it will be kinematically the same if the attatchment point of the 3.rd link is sufficiently sturdy and located corectly.... ...

We have made some big headway on Project Unfair. The rear suspension is in. We made wheel tubs using a Art Morrison wheel tub kit. We wanted a tub that did not curve at the top of the tub and wanted full travel to the top of the tub. We raised the tubs 1 1/2" also. We made the outer tub fit the quarter as tight as it could and gained some space where the factory outer wheelhouse bulges in a bit. We also welded a 1/4 rod all around the wheel opening moulding and when welded to the outer heel house will be very a very smooth edge SHOULD a tire ever get close to it.

All this is to clear our taller / wider 345 / 35 / 18 drag radials which are almost 28" tall! We pulled the wheels off Michael's Monte and mocked them up at ride height, pretty fricken sick height with complete suspension travel. What a difference 1 1/2" makes.

The sheetmetal is all screwed into place and fits excellent now. The door gap looks wide in this pic but it is a camera angle, the door gaps are actually very good. Trunk gaps need a little massage, but all in all I am very happy with the AMD stuff.

FYI, we weighed the AMD panels and a pair of Golden Legion panels. The AMD are 28 LBS, the Golden Legion are 18LBS! BIG difference and you can feel it to. When we welded the bead on the quarters we go little to no warpage!

We are getting a set of those 345 / 35 / 18 drag radials mounted on Michaels Monte wheels, so I will mock them up on Unfair before putting back on Michael's car and post pics later.

It is starting to look like a car and I am getting really excited now.

John will now get it for a couple months and start pre wiring, pre pumbing, Making headers / exhaust.





Cruise and race height!


Lots a room!

Frank did you put new rockers on this car....
