The last sales rep that tried to pull that BS on me got ripped. I get so sick and tired of hearing these reps say that I'm the only one to ever report such an issue. Nonetheless, you can still use the kit. You will just have to modify the one closeout for that side and add a small strip of metal to the tub. You can look back through my thread and see where I did all that.

Can you copy the one from the other side, or is it different?

I know I'm not the only one to work on a 67 Camaro, right? I'll look thru your thread.

I think I can copy the other side, just don't want to use the close outs now cuz then I can't return them .... cuz they charge you extra for the stamped close outs.

Angry Now I'm pissed

What the Halibut? Really ... Chassisworks can't even get a mini tub correct

Take a look and see for yourself, (sorry for the really big pixs) I marked at 2" and folded over @ 2.75" and had to cut up over the shock tower and floor pan at 2.75" (too many layers to fold and the rail in way).


Something doesn't look right!

Can you see the 2" mark and where I bent the flange @ 2.75!

This is the measurement I took BEFORE 9.25 + 2.75 = 12 RIGHT?

All is clamped right!

I measured the pass side and it's the same ... not gonna be good!

If the is a Chassisworks rep reading this I would like some answers .... please reply.

Should have just ordered from DSE

Yeah it SUCKS .... the price is DSE plus $50.00 for the closeouts + shipping. I have to make my own close out panel anyway - nothing for a 67 Camaro!

Smile Mini Update

Chris Alston Sr. of Chassisworks called today to figure out my mini tub issue... that was cool and excellent customer service.

We decided to wait til my outer wheel houses come to see where everything lines up with my car, if I want to return them he's OK with that,
or we can see about making them work. He hadn't worked on a non-staggered shock Camaro and didn't know about the closeouts
not fitting .... does now!

Chris also offered to make my closeouts for my Camaro if I send him a scanned jpg of what I need.... A+++++ rating from me.

So,I'll wait til my outer wheel houses come in and go from there, back on to the roof issues.
..

Oh yeah, it is snowing again (10" so far) on the first day of May, should be upwards of 50 by the weekend, that's good enough to work in the garage.
