Awesome!!! You guys are putting out spectacular products and machines, keep it up! Be aware that you will need to do something for the 2nd Gen guys someday.

That'll happen when we sell a few of what we've got.
We now have applications for 64-72 GM A body Chevelle, GTO, etc
62-67 Chevy 2 Nova, 48-54 GM pickups, 67-70 Mustang/Cougar, and this 1st gen F body. They all sell for $2395 bare, Under $3000 with control arms.
Thanks

I LIKE this idea. Who's control arms do they accept?

Jeff,
Nice looking chassis! Do you have any figures on the amount of weight that this will add(I assume it will be heavier?) to a '69 Camaro with the factory setup? Is there a website that shows an install(I didn't see it on your site or V8 TV's)? Other than the subframe, what other structural components does your frame replace?
Thanks,
Jim

It uses it's own special control arms with spherical rod ends and coilovers. I don't have exact figures yet, but It is lighter than the stock subframe, crossmember, leaf springs, coils and aftermarket frame connectors.
Two people can easily carry it around with one hand on each end.
V8TV will televise the assembly and install after we do it and I'll post pics to our site as we do it.
thanks

Sounds like a sweet setup. Does the floor pan get any modification to fit the frame? Are the factory "frame rails" cut off the Camaro tub? Will the Camaro tub be taken out of the "stiffness equation"(what I'm trying to ask is, is the frame stiff enough on it's own and is the body just "along for the ride")?
Thanks,
Jim

Where do I sign up?? Damn that would be cool! Do you have the specs for the suspension? ie Bumpsteer, camber gain, etc.?

Figures. Someone had to go out and do this. I bought a complete morrison frame (max g ) and have to create and fabricate everything. Good timing. Chris

I would also be interested on the fab end of it, also what the engineering does. Does it work with a minitub, or can it be made that way? Is the front narrowed any for those fat tires we like? What type of rear suspension does it use?
As you can see, I'm a bit interested.

No floorpan mods required, stock gas tank will work. Designed for minitubs. Rear rails go adjacent to the inside of the stock rails in the rear pan. There is no chassis I know, other than a caged race car chassis that's stiff enough to run without a body. The Camaro body adds stiffness as well. I'm not disussing engineering data in a public forum. If you're ready to order one call me and I'll give you the tech info.
Thanks,
