Default Great build - first new Camaro in 47 years

Given the amount of work you've done I think your car qualifies as a new '67 Camaro. Incredible patience and perseverance is paying off. Really incredible work, as many more qualified then myself have said. I am wondering if you will use the Lizard Skin for all of your sound deadening? I've heard good thinks about it and they claim it's less expensive then Dynamat. What's your opinion so far?

Anyway, thanks for sharing your fabulous build with us on Lateral-G. And thank you for your service.

Rod

Rod ... thanks for the compliment, I am trying to do it right the first time and not have second thoughts about this or that .... and I get ideas from those that forged ahead of me on Lat G.

I am planning on coating the inside w Lizard skin and then their ceramic coat on the firewall and then a simple black paint over that. Any mat over the sheet metal will require removal if anything needs repaired/ mod's ... Lizard Skin can be sanded and painted and you can repair a patch if needed w a simple respray. Just those points won me over sticking on that expensive mat.

My service was a blast and thank you for following my little build ... more to come!

Nice .... let' see some pixs!!!

Well it was a test of patience and leverage but I got the sub under the car. Still need to check alignment a little better and cut my stands down and reweld them to the base .... the mosquitoes were starting to eat me up and I had to come in and call it a nite.






Finally starting to look like a car again .... now to get the swing metal on the front end and get going on that quarter.

Thanks for looking ...
