I love the color. I think its a refreshing change from the normal selction of "typical" colors often chosen.

Very true. Kind of anxious to see what the car will look like when complete and on the ground. Should be cool!

Just read through. Good stuff!

I gotta say, I'm glad you guys all seem to like the color, of course maybe everyone else is just too nice to say that they don't like it. Every one that sees the color in person seems to comment about how much they like it.

I spent yesterday over at Best of Show putting sound deadener in the car, so I have some more pics to upload. Although, maybe those will remain on the camera, because my work wasn't too pretty.

Also, I really need to thank Steve Rupp. Today he went out of his way, and took a break from working to meet up and drop off some clamps from his Tiger Cage, so that Brad could put everything together, hopefully Monday Morning, as the car is supposed to get painted Monday as well, and head out the upholstery shop Tuesday.

Hey, watch it.. you'll ruin my reputation as a self-centered unfriendly jerk that only looks out for himself..

lol.. No problem on the parts.. glad to help. Besides, I want that damn car done so I can go for a ride.


As for the color, who doesn't like purple?

Sorry. I had you pegged as the selfless guy who took it as upon himself to step up and do a job that few others would (or could), having to accept and carry boxes of transmissions, engines and other parts, relentlessly beating on your car 'til it needs upgrading,working weekends, long hours, and traveling across the country to cover events, sometimes on your own dime, assuming the role of "Mr. Camaro," all for the simple goal of serving out community.


oh yeah and driving around to help people out, out the the simple goodness of your heart. Or maybe for the love of all things Camaro related.

Although, if you'd rather I think you just wanted a ride or something to write on in the future thats cool too. You know, we were sitting around at Best of Show on Friday with Casti talking about how his renderings might look right at home on the Camaro Concepts page of Camaro Performers.

Ok, here are a couple pics from yesterday.




I've got some cool ideas for the interior. We're hoping to make it look more grand-tourer that typical pro-tourer.

matty matt,
your did a nice job putting in the sound deadener!

perhaps your interior will be leaning a bit towards the bro-tourer style as well??

and thank you stevie ruppstien for letting us use your tiger cage clamps, that makes my life a lot easier

xoxox,
brotourer

[Matt@BOS]

Hmm, I don't know about the bro touring style I hadn't planned on putting spy+ stickers in the window or building a storage space for white sunglasses.

Anyway, Dick sent these my way today so I figured I'd post them up.

Sweet !

Very nice. That color should really "pop" out in the sunlight.
