WOW! where to begin, the project has been moved forward, Im excited. Mikes custom cars did a beautiful job on the sheet metal and paint. Big thanks to Mike for letting me and my brother invade his shop for a near 10 hour all day thrash, installed the rear and subframe with Mike so we could turn the car into a roller and trailer it home to NJ. Its literally a brand new 69 camaro with lots of DSE goodies. If you want to check out Mikes web site he has 100s of pics up on the sheet metal magic that he does. Here's a few pics, Ive got few issues with the wheels to resolve, and anxious to move it along.

WOW That looks awesome!!! I think I just shorted out my key board from drool , Atleast I think it was drool. I wouldn't sleep for a week bringing that home. I love the color. We need a lot of pictures as it goes together.
I love it.

Looking good!

You said you had issues with the wheels, what's wrong? You didn't happen to have valve stems hitting the brake calipers did you?

Well of course he did!

That's what happens with those hidden little gems... I had that issue with the Budniks and the Wilwoods on the 55 post car...

Wow what a great looking build!!!

Thanks. Yes the valve stems did hit, but we corected that a while back. We needed to put a .250 wheel spacer in to clear the big W6A calipers and that moved the wheel out and now its touching the fender. And the rear wheels need go about .250 deeper in. I have close to an inch and quarter on the inside of the rear. I just have to get a hold of Frank to get this straightened out.
