Can someone Please identify this custom front clip on a 1969 Camaro Pro Touring?

[MusclecarsNY]

Hi guys we just got this car delivered that a customer bought at Mecum. The car is very nicely done but the front clip is an afterthought. the car has a new DSE Quadralink, JRI shocks and mini tubs and an LS2 motor and T56 but this front clips looks like an awful Pinto style Mustang 2 kit

the front clip kinda resembles a Martz chassis section but I am not certain. the Qa1 coilovers are shot and the car has zero suspension travel as the photos reveal. there is also no sway bar on this front clip.there are not strut rods attached to the lower control arms.

We just want to ID it to see what it is, we have plans to install a DSE Subframe in December but would like to see if we can source new coilovers from Ridetech with proper rate springs to hold this customer over until we do a full tear down.

such a shame seeing how some cars are build so nice then one major area is just slapped together ruining it all. If any of you guys know what this is please post in this thread if you can, greatly appreciated.

thanks again.

thanks for posting that is 100% the kit that is on this car and the thread you posted showed that guys car with the same problem with bottomed out shocks and springs, how the hell do these companies stay in business building these kits so wrong. we spent hours today trying to adjusts stuff but the system is so poorly designed and with the issue of no suspension travel nothing will fix this unless its all torn out.

Shame on the guy who sold that car at Mecum. He knew full well it was no damn good.

Yeah that car was probably built just to flip and the owner likely knew it was not safe to drive.

front coils are way to soft, and have too many coils for that short travel, get some new coils that are stiffer shorter and have a much shorter coil bind height (those look like they could be around 150# springs made for a rear suspension) and you have about 1.5" of available thread on the shock
