Hi Brian, It is not finished yet. I have the glass in but not the interior I just had to see what it would run before winter sets in. Shay

Jimmy,
It's a 69 Camaro with a 502 and an F-1 Procharger making right around 1000hp (IIRC). I've been looking forward to seeing this car done since seeing the pictures of it in the buildup stage on the "Cars" page when I joined the site a couple years ago.

Nice Times, Shay!!! Where those times on the 18s?

[Shayc5]

All of the glass is in the car now, Hey Ralph, I bought some centerline ventura's 16x9.5 and 26x11.5x16 ET Streets for this. They look pretty good if you leave the center cap off. Shay

Excellent Shay, thats one of my favorite cars on this site. Looks good AND hauls ass.

Your 1/8 mile is an approximate low 10 second 1/4 range, probably in the 10.30 area.

Did you have to adjust any of the suspension components to make it launch better? Is the car a manual or auto?

Woooood! :drool:
That thing is AWESOME!! :headbang:
Put it on the full track next time!

[Shayc5]

Thanks Guys.

Tony, That is the first time at the track for the car. It ran straight and true though so no changes yet. I have some video from the rear leaving the line that will be posted when I get the tape to Scott [XCYZ]
I would like to get it around some 6.30's or better when all's said and done. And then drive home with the A/C on. Summer time of course for the A/C though. Shay

Nice ride Shay!!

[Ralph LoGrasso]

Sweet, Shay! That's probably the exact same tire I'm going to run at the strip, since no one makes any reasonably sized (that I've found atleast) 16" diam. slicks.

[Streetking]

Beautiful car.. Do you have a website with anymore pictures?? Also, what are the offsets for your Fikses? Sorry for all the questions, just trying to gather more info for my project..

thanks,

SW
