[jb@ridetech]

i have a few pics of the 2008 giveaway car
what do you guys think?

[teamplex65]

Beautiful and clean. I like it alot. The bumper line is deffinetly something I have not seen before.

I might have done black carpet (seems like alot of blues there) but I still love the car. The engine compartment looks like its all business.

Does it have AirRide? :rolleyes:

[McssGmachine]

Give it to me!!!

[EFI69Cam]

Does it bounce?

[jb@ridetech]

Does it bounce?

maybe over cones on the autox course!

[Johnny Blaze]

Killer. WHats the color?

[teamplex65]

Does it bounce?

lol, most popular question when young, and old both learn that it has AirRide. The answer is always "NO". Young kids are dissapointed, the old ones are glad it doesnt. Its always a kick.

[teamplex65]

There was a thread on here about annoying questions about your car. One dude said his was "does it bounce"? I thought the follow up ribbing he got was hilarious, hence my question.

I'm sure this Chevelle is bad a$$.

[PleaseNoSteve]

[John McIntire]

looks good man! Whats involved with flush mounting the glass?

[jeff s]

Aren't there some Schwartz billet battery mounting trays in there?

[Bob Johnson]

finally someone builds a giveaway car worth having. Air ride always does quality work. Their SEMA cars have always been tits..

[stage2ROUSH]

ok ok !!!! if you guys at airride REALLY want my 02 stage2 ROUSH, because I'm a good guy, Ill trade even for the chevelle!!! no really that is one sweet car !!!! and because I'm so nice, Ill even come pick it up and drive it home .

[ProdigyCustoms]

WOW, Looks killer! Someone is going to be very happy to win that one!

[Doug Cooper]

Fantastic build quality! I'm entering. Can't wait to see it get flogged.

[Hot Rod Girl]

Are you guys planning on having this car at all the autocross events next year? I think this is a great idea. Show guys you can build a car and drive the hell out of it. Show people what it's capable of doing on a track. That is a car my friend worth winning! Great job looks great! Love the racing stripes. Very Cool. Anyone catch the slogan on the door panel by the door handle? Caution do not open in exceeds of 150mph. Brett has a good since of humor you gotta love it.

[Tony_SS]

All the reason I need to attend a Good Guys show!

[Gordz32]

Hey, How come wh didn't get the fancy valve covers with our world 540. Those are sweet. and I guess the rest of the car is okay too. HAHA Just kidding, CArs looks great. And as always, I love ur products and so far throughout our project chevelle parts roundup, I have recieved the best customer service from u guys. Thanks again.

[Steve1968LS2]

I would rather have that than the Foose Camaro!

:)

[muthstryker]

is this thing going to be at all the good guys shows? or just a certain few? would love to see that in person

[trapin]

you can enter at any Good Guys event, just fill out the entry form and your good to go!
For free? Seems like this would be a great car to raise money for charity with. Even if you were charging $1 a ticket I bet that would be a few thousand to the Lukemia Society or Cystic Fibrosis. Just an idea.

With that said, this is a hell of a giveaway car. Top notch all the way. Now I'm pissed I didn't make it down to Columbus last weekend.:banghead:

[jb@ridetech]

Aren't there some Schwartz billet battery mounting trays in there?

sorry jeff, yes there are 2 billet battery mounting trays also.

yes we will have the chevelle RS at all of our autocross events we also will be driving the car to and from the shows, we also plan on taking it to the hotels in the evenings, so the care will be extensively tested before the new owner receives it. We finished the car the Wednesday before columbus, trailered it to columbus, but drove it home!

We made the valve cover tags here.

9mm? After my last outing in the red Camaro...... at a minimum I am looking at a 45 :)

[Bob Johnson]

I think a trunk monkey is more in order..

[wiedemab]

Gotta love the Trunk Monkey commercials!!

[Boesch]

Intro was proud to put our wheels on such a cool car.

[Gordz32]

Did you guys just order the stainless works headers or are they built for that car? I ask b/c I'm a little worried about ordering headers and having clearence issues running full length headers with the air ride system. Any input or pictures would be great.

[darren@ridetech]

It's their off the shelf header. They do hang below the cross member a bit, but not nearly as much as some of the others do.

[TUBED]

Will you guys have this car in Pigeon Forge in September?
Gerald

[darren@ridetech]

Most likely, but not sure yet.

Here are some build shots. Precision Coachworks www.paintgods.com (http://www.paintgods.com) here in Jasper,IN did the complete build. The bare metal stipes are one of the most unique parts of the build. Deleting the drip rails & flush mounting the glass turned out really nice as well.

They also narrowed and tucked the front and rear bumpers and deleted the marker lights and front license plate recess. It was almost a sin to paint over such nice metal work on the bumpers.
