JCG Kuwait 1969 Camaro Build

[nvr2fst]

Very nice work Cris,
But I will say the bumper treatment looks very familiar to a 69 at Ironworks

Very bad azz '69. Can't wait to see the finished product.

Did you mean similar or familar? Because to me it looks similar or almost the same.




I guess the chassis table and the roll up door are different.

Looks great!!

Rodger/Dave- When I first started working the rear section of the car I was looking @ Ned’s Cuda with 2nd Gen Camaro… but somewhere along the line we ended up with what we have right now… I will admit that it does have similar appearance to what you have.. bumper wise! Our 69 has its own unique style to it & will be its own when completed..

Rodger- Thanks for posting a comparison picture.. When Brycen came & interviewed to work for JCG we had a discussion about the difference on the rear sections of both cars.. Sorry to hear that he will not be completing what he started on Dave’s 69..

So then you already knew about the "similarity" way before today. I'm interested to see the spoiler that goes on next.

As far as Brycen being around to finish some of the work he has done on Dave's car, it is a bummer to lose a guy with talent, But if you think losing him is going to change one speck of dust on any project in my shop your sorely mistaken. There is plenty of other talent in my shop, there has to be to turn out the quantity and the quality of the work we do on a daily basis. This shop is not a one spoke wheel. Brycen had been here for 7 years and I'm bummed to lose him but the show must and will go on. And from my perspective if he is living in your neighborhood you would be crazy not to hire him for his talent, But it takes the customers to pay for the kind of quality my guys are used to putting out on a daily basis to make it work.

I havent been on much due to my health with recent cancer and personal issues. But I was frustrated seeing this post/pictures of the rear end. If Im not mistaken Neds cuda came to you after the 69 and the idea clearly came from Rodgers photos of my build IMO. Otherwise why would the issue even of been discussed with Brycen if you didnt think it mimiced my 69. Thus my reasoning for not posting build pictures of unigue ideas on my car lately. Either way, wherever you got your inspiration from (which we all get it from somewhere) the rear bumper idea sure looks like an exact duplicate and Ill just leave it at that. As I said before it does look great thats why I decided to do this on my car. We cant stop individuals from copying ideas but they should at least give credit where credit is due. Good luck, and I look forward to viewing your finished product once my in/out hospital days are done with.

All I can say is that the owner from Kuwait has very deep pockets and he will have a bad ass 69! This 69 should stay in the USA (too nice to ship) , BUT I guess it will leave the country when done.

Similar but I can see that it's going to be a distinctly different finished product.

Dave, with all due respect, I can respect and understand you frustration. But, since I work in the health field, can I ask you to do one favor. Get well first sir. Concentrate on your health and your well being. It's only a car. I pray you do get well and are able to enjoy the car. By the way, that is one sexy rear end and I do love the bumper mod myself.
