This is the same car that you saw with the Nelson motor in it. But, the motor is not actually going in this car. We are building another 69 Camaro with that 572 twin turbo Nelson motor in it. We are just starting the chassis and wanted to fit the motor in this Camaro to see if any changes would need to be made to the chassis or cross members for the motor and turbos to clear.

We also have a 1,300 + HP Nelson twin turbo small block in the show room that is going in a 2nd gen shortly.

Awesome. I enjoy the posts and looking around the shop.

One question off topic, can you tell me about the photo of the rear of the cobra that is on the wall in one of the views of the camaro?

Thanks,

Darren

Looks great. Two questions 1) who do you use for media blast, I want to get my 70 chevelle blasted. 2) What body bushings do you guys use on your builds?

I just love that frame, would love to have one of those under my Camaro. Also does the owner of this Camaro want to sell the trans?

The engine, trans, wheels, sub-frame, and rear end are already sold and gone... Sorry.

Renderings of the car completed by Chris Gray. We are going for a modernized version of the 1969 Camaro with a few subtle details to enhance the look with out taking away from the original lines of the car.
