It seems they don't have any info listed on their website but I saw it at the Optima Event. It has an LS7, The Roadster Shop frame etc. I thought it was a great car.....except for the green paint imo. They do drive the snot out of it

Brans, I own green Chevelle. It is our (RS Performance/Roadster Shop) test car for our chassis and other parts. I have been way behind with updating our site, so there is not too much info on it. What type of info were you looking for?

A young man was beating the autocross up in that car. I like the green paint

The lower panels were a 1-off build. The side panels/rocker extensions can be reproduced, the front and rear are specific to this car. The front and rear bumpers were sectioned, narrowed, and several other shapes were slightly modified. The front bumper was filled and then we built a large recess into the center section. The lower panels were fabricated to follow all of these changes and would not work with stock bumpers.

I was the one driving the car at all of the autocross events. Just trying to get some notice for the performance of our chassis.

...the color helps get noticed just a little bit too. iIt is definitely a "love it or hate it" type of color. It is Porsche GT3 RS Green.

We just finished up a '70 Chevelle convertible that is way more detailed than this one. It was just delivered to the Recovery Room for the interior. i have to get around to starting a thread on that car. I'll keep you posted

While some may not like the color, I do as it works great on this car. Also a fun car to scare cones with, too ...

This particular car had a couple minor glitches that hindered it's performance when we were first introduced but I got to drive it again on the autocross course at OPTIMA and was quite pleased with the changes. Not sure what's underneath suspension-wise but it makes this car very versatile (track, autocross, and street driving).

Keep up the good work, guys ... build these and you can sell 'em all day long.

Cheers,
Mary Pozzi
