I think we'll paint it deep gloss black... and I'll drop it off to the VanNus's to fix one a month.....

I worked on the mirrors today. I need to convert the remote adjuster to just a manual set up. The carbon "bullet" mirrors look cool in carbon.

How about garnet red with a matt black hood and header panel surrounded with a matt black pinstripe? And then add a set of satin black GA3R's.

Seen this on a new model Camaro at a local dealership and it looked sweet!!

That's cool, Paul. I thought of that scheme too. Iconic Z/28 rally stripes would expose all three panels as well.

It will be bitchin no matter what Can't wait to see the rendering..

with all the weight loss stuff your putting on i am surprised you dont have a autorad on it. not sure what the weight differance would be but at least it would be off the front of the car.

I know a guy that had a set of carbon fiber doors for a 69 laying around. SO light you could pick it up with one finger. Don't know if you could put windows in them though.

Hey Mark, save yourself some $$, smooth out the body and have the car wrapped in CF looking adhesive. A CF 69 Camaro might look cool....might. Problem might come if you are hauling butt and it comes off. Folks might think you went so fast you outran your paint job.

By the way, thanks for all the info. This has been as good a thread as I have read here. Course, I don't get out much.

Vinyl Car Wraps are not to be overlooked and might lend themselves well to Marks style of driving. The OneLap Camaro has done wraps hasn't it? Were there issues with adhesion there?

Doing a Carbon Fiber "look" base with graphics over could be a cool look on a '69, but it is an "import" trend .

Mark has never been shy about painting over CF parts before so I won't hold my breath about leaving them nekkid just to show off that he has CF on his car.

I would propose something in a nostalgic graphic/stripe theme... maybe a homage to Baldwin Motion or Yenko 427 Supercars is due since Mark is using the Thomson 427SC motors now? These cars are proving to win not just Supercar but "Ultimate Streetcar" status...


I will echo all the comments of appreciation for the information flow from this level of build. Sincerely, Thanks to all of you making such vast contributions of knowledge.

What are you guys trying to do, put me out of buisness!?? Lol I agree somewhat with the wrap. Mark drives his cars like rentals. Which is cool. I really enjoy seeing a all around quality built car out flogging it out on the track.
A wrap would be a lot better than this flat black nonsense! Lol
Whatever will be cool I'm looking forward to seeing what Murry will design. I'm sure it will be awesome.
