Default What is the most radical 69 camaro, EVER?

I'm working on putting togther a project 69 camaro with Typical Ironworks stuff, tube chassis and all that blah blah blah. But do you guys have any pics of the most radical 69 you have every seen, as in stance with or with out air bags, prefer air bags, because we plan to have a very aggresive static ride height. I'm looking for something along the lines of the G-Force cuda or the the Brunning Cuda but in a 69 Camaro. I'm also thinking of trying to wedge section the car and just to line the rocker up with front fender extensions. We plan just buy all the exterior panels and align everything up from there. We are not going to cut up a stocker.

Could some body give me tell me how much higher the front fender extensions are above therocker on the camro if the rocker was parrell to the ground. I'm sure somebody has a 69 camaro on this site.

Thanks

Rodger

Well let me post few I have been looking at. I was unable to get any pics of Orion off the lateral-g homepage. I know there was a Morrison chassis that some guy overseas was putting under a 69 but I can not find it for the life of me.

Default I think I remember

hearing or reading where the front fenders on Big Red were done like you were talking about. The nose was dropped for aero purposes. That car is suppose to be really low at the nose.

I will have to measure when I get home, but I think the fender extension makes up the difference to line it up to the bottom of the rocker...8 to 10 inches

I'm just looking for the car the either has a custom chassis to achieve a lower then usual ride height. Feslers camaro sits really low in the front, Orion has a wicked stance. Most all these cars are limited by the sub frame.

Geez Tom...Quite the Resume.....And cool cars on your site..

Master Fabrication/Restoration Technician Tom Farrell:
Tom Farrell has spent nearly his entire life learning the arts of metal fabrication, welding and repair, body preparation and painting and standard mechanical diagnosis and repair. Before graduation from high school, he had already created a number of specialty vehicles, fabricating custom frames, interchanging drive trains, creating one-off parts in his family machine shop, and working extensively with paint, body prep and fiberglass body parts. From 1981 to 1985 Tom worked as an apprentice and journeyman in an oil-industry related repair, fabrication and large-engine repair business. From 1985 to 1992 he served as supervisor and resident expert for this same entity. During this period, he became impressively expert in custom machining and fabrication, adaptation and painting of all manner of parts and frames composed of nearly every kind of metal used today. In addition, he perfected his all-source welding skills to a level of quality rarely seen anywhere in the world. In 1992, Tom followed a lifelong dream and joined a NASCAR Busch Series team, working for Allen Dillard Motors’ Racing Team in the Charlottesville, VA area. After one season of racing, his talents were recognized by the Carl Yarborough racing team and he moved there. By 1995, he’d been offered and accepted a position at the prestigious Penske Racing team. From 1995 to early 2007, Tom specialized in NASCAR race vehicle design and construction for Penske Racing. This included frequent prototype CAD work and designing and machining parts on three-axis CNC mills, custom fabrication of metal and carbon fiber parts and assemblies, suspension fabrication/tuning and body prep/painting. Tom’s position included hands-on involvement with nearly every aspect of the creation of these very complex race vehicles. Tom’s wealth of knowledge and expertise was recognized again in 2000 when Penske Racing moved him to their research and development and wind-tunnel testing area. Also in 2000, Tom began his own business restoring, creating custom fabricated parts, painting, plating and finishing, and performing mechanical maintenance on hot rods, Muscle Cars and exotic cars—specializing in vintage Ferraris. Today, Tom Farrell brings 31 years of experience in shaping metal, fiberglass, carbon fiber, custom welding, forming custom frame work, roll cages, exhausts and headers, mold-making for hard-to-find or custom parts and paint and body work to RKC every day—ensuring our creations and restorations are the finest available.
