The June '11 Feature of the Month is Matt Alcala's 69 Camaro. Many of us got to check it out at SEMA last year, we got to see first hand how great the car is. Matt's car won the GM Design Best Sports Car Design Award at SEMA - it doesn't get much better than that. I'm a big fan and I'm glad we were finally able to make it a FotM.
Congrats Matt on the feature of the month, without a doubt you had a up and down past year with your car but thats all in the past. Beautiful car . Joe
Thanks guys. I have to say, I never imagined that any online forum would house such a tight knit group of people. It is pretty unique being able to say that you know a majority of the people behind the screen names here, which is very cool indeed.
Building a car at a shop that has been kind enough to trust me and let me do whatever I want (hell, they picked purple over the gray I'd suggested) has been great, but getting out to events and meeting the community has been just as much, if not more fun. My dad, Steve, never reads up about any of this on the internet, however he has really enjoyed the whole process as well.
I've said it before, but the car wouldn't exist had I never stumbled upon Lateral-G some years ago. It has, without a doubt, been the most expensive outcome of stumbling across a web page one random day. And it isn't over, either. I've got some new Anvil parts to show off, but I'll save that for another story.
