This was my first SEMA and it was so awesome seeing all these cars I've only read about and seen pix of. As soon as I saw the mountain bike sticking out of the side of a 2nd gen I knew I'd found 2nd Chance. Seeing it in person makes a world of difference, i mean you know it's nice from the pics but you don't get a feel for how nice until you see it up close and personal. Very cool car and I took a ton of pics for my sister who also owns a second Gen and needs a new direction.

How's the car been treating you Marty? Have you driven it much? Also what sizes tires did you end up with on the new wheels?

Glad to see somebody else tried the Line-X under the car. Planning to do that to my 71 Firebird as well. Did you use a rotisserie? If so where were your mounting points? Sweet ride by the way!!

The car has been quietly resting at Kenny's in Arkansas due to the Awesome winter we have been having here in Chicago. It look like I will be picking it up at Indy Good Guys in June.

So for now I am currently working on the 2010 Camaro that I took in partial trade for the Syborg truck. I am trying to get it ready for a couple track events this summer and the mostly the Power Tour. I am working with the Guys at LG Motorsports on the suspension and chassis stiffeners. Next year I will most likely do the full DSE conversion. But for now it just wasn't in the budget.

I also think the car needs more color and of course some Carbon Fiber as it it way to yellow.

ps It sucks having two cars to work on as I don't know which one to work on first. However I did get this really cool chassis from Scott Mock for the 70 which I will work over the next year or two.









My goal with this chassis is to emulate what AL Moreno kids are doing with there 5th gen Camaro.
