For first timers the ISIS system required a bit of patience and a few phone calls, but the end result is well worth it...and would not hesitate to use it again..

Flaming River D-Wheel we have modified it and will be rewrapping it with leather. It has a nice feel and works well with the paddle shifters.

[Motown 454]

Wow looks a wesome!

[SDS MACHINING]

could not be happier with the paint, the guys did a great job after months of prep and blocking it has payed off, it seems like the little tedious assembly bits will never end,, 2 more weeks we figure..just in time to put it away for the winter..

[Gandalf]

Killer looking car - it's really coming together nice!

[jtm311]

Looks great. Will you be adding any type of rubber to finish the windshield or will it stay the way you have?
That will be one of my next projects.

Mary Sweet Mother of all Creatures Big and Small. That thing is insane! Kudos to you guy's for an incredible build:hail::hail::hail:

Do you guy's have a website?

Just the machine shop website, sdsmachining.com once the car is finished we will be doing a complete makeover of our outdated website to include some of the one off items we have made for this build. we are getting extremely close to completion, stay tuned and thanks for the kudos...

[Motown 454]

Scott I Can only say one word Awesome !

[SDS MACHINING]

Thanks Wayne....hope all is well with your build as well

[northwests]

Did you paint that in Canby? Booth looks familiar. This car is total badass. When will and where can I see this beauty. Imin oregon city

Hopefully in the next few weeks it will be out for an initial full shakedown drive. The car was painted using the booth in canby. However that shop is not involved with this project they were nice enough to let us use the booth over the weekend.

[FRENCHBLUE72]

Is SDS JOHN RIPLINGER by chance?

Oh that's cool. I used that booth and painted my truck there too. Just recognized it and thought what a small world. I will keep an eye out for this thing on the road. Might even get my 69 on the road someday. Great job for real on your work.

[SDS MACHINING]

Is SDS JOHN RIPLINGER by chance?
I do not know John Riplinger

[coolwelder62]

Top Notch,Outstanding.

Sorry about that.. There is a guy in the dallas/canby area who runs SDS CUSTOMS I was just wondering you two were one and the same? Anyways back to the killer build..

Everything looks awesome Scott.

I REALLY like the flush mount glass. Who is the manufacturer?

[SDS MACHINING]

Everything looks awesome Scott.

I REALLY like the flush mount glass. Who is the manufacturer?

Thanks Ray, we built the car around the glass basically, no one makes a modern flush mount glass that does not require some kind of trim or molding, some edge trimming, sanding and polishing on stock glass was involved, as well as coming up with a method of applying the black urethane adhesion band which looks factory, a few tests were involved to ensure a nice crisp edge.

[SDS MACHINING]

A small test drive last week. Still much work to do but it does drive..

[Motown 454]

Must have felt great seeeing it out for a test drive. SWEET !

[XLexusTech]

Nice car, color/Paint is amazing... what did you paint/spray the underside with?

[SDS MACHINING]

Nice car, color/Paint is amazing... what did you paint/spray the underside with?

Raptor Liner, and it was a great feeling to actually get behind the wheel.. weather permitting we might be able to get some more aggressive testing accomplished this week.

[BuddyP]

This project is phenomenal! Love the additional integrated skirting around the front/sides.

[Lenie]

I'm jealous, nice work. Great looking car.

[FRENCHBLUE72]

Love this car...

[SDS MACHINING]

thank you everyone, we are doing a few minor changes this week as well as trying to complete the upholstery. we will try and get it back out as soon as possible (weather permitting) and put the car to the the test...

[SDS MACHINING]

A little more test and tune, whats the smoke? had a power steering o ring fail on this test, no big deal already fixed and cleaned up, Thanks to Mark Bowler for all his attention and assistance in getting our 6speed up and running, i will never buy a transmission from anyone but Bowler, customer service is incredible and has made this aspect of the project enjoyable..:twothumbs:twothumbs

I couldn't resist the temptation of giving it about 30% throttle..i guess i should start having a sets of rear tires on hand..

Sounds and looks totally awesome. What mufflers are you running?

Keep up the good work. Love watching it come together.

Keep up the good work. Love watching it come together.

we fabricated the "mufflers" using 4" oval, they are integrated into the exhaust so they are not noticable..

Simply badass in all aspects craftsmanship, execution, and subtle details. I'm in love with the exhaust

[Richio1]

Wow, impressive. Glad I asked (PM me for address to send the check to for the shameless plug on your great work) LOL.

Seriously, great job. I love the creativity and execution.

[srh3trinity]

The exhaust is coming out great. I am going to have to go back through this thread and spend some time enjoying the details and fab.

[SDS MACHINING]

Jeff/Stephen.

thank for the compliments, ask all the questions you want i have about 800+ pictures.. not sure if the moderator would appreciate a photobomb of that size

[Samiam]

Wow I really like the rocker extensions...how much was it extended..all the way around..I would love to do something similar

[Samiam]

Wow really like the rocker extensions..how much where they extended

[LUV2XLR8]

where did you find those side exhaust tips??

[SDS MACHINING]

the rockers were extended down about 3 inches and around the back was boxed in and extended down about 1.5"
I machined the exhaust tips..

did a really nice job... those tips are killer!!!

[SDS MACHINING]

we look forward to meeting people at the Grand National Show in Pamona. as we have "officially" been accepted and also invited to the Autorama show in Sacramento in February, with all the testing and tuning done for a while we are now doing all the detail work that becomes ever so tedious, Interior is nearly complete and its time for a final polish on the exterior.. here are a few photos of the car on the last test drive,

[RS_Customs]

Wow, very nice!!!

[Mr.VENGEANCE]

shoot.. the whole car LOOKS like glass.

i can dig it!

[CliffS]

Killer car!!

[5spd540]

[SDS MACHINING]

shoot.. the whole car LOOKS like glass.

i can dig it!

That is the compliment all paint guys love to hear, i will pass that one along for sure!!

thanks everyone for their feedback as well, its well received and appreciated.

[KHShapiro]

Stunning

[AintQik]

I had that hood on my 67 and sold it for a lower one. Now I'm regretting it ;) Car looks awesome.

[SDS MACHINING]

Big Block played its part in hood clearance, 10.2 deck height on a 632 forced us to go with the 4" cowl, we tried a 2" cowl at first but we would of had to gone with a really thin air cleaner and those look terrible in my opinion,. thanks for the feedback.. interior should be finished this week and i will post some photos of it.

[SDS MACHINING]

A few of the details are a bit hard to identify in the pictures, such as the black rockers and the exhaust tips. but i did find one more video from my cell phone when we were doing some testing and getting the 6 speed all dialed in. I am anxious for some decent weather so we can really get into the power a bit more..

thank you Wayne, we are still in shock over receiving 4 awards,, never did we think we would be the recipients when in the company of such outstanding cars.. truly an emotional weekend for all of us.. Sacramento Autorama is next month we hope to keep the momentum going, with our Black and Silver theme heading into the heart of "Raider Nation" we might pick up a few more fans there as well... whatever happens next is purely for fun and the enjoyment of meeting new people and making new friends..

[1fststang]

sure you have been asked already but would you let me know the paint code for the color you used? awesome build, thanks

WHat an icredible car!! congrats on the camaro!! you need to warn other camaro owners to stay away from your page lol!!!

[SDS MACHINING]

thanks guys,

There are alot of killer cars on the ISCA circuit right now and we are happy to be part of it, we never even planned on showing the car at this level, but we might as well run with it while its new and fresh before i hammer the poor thing to death this summer. I have the Goodguys schedule burning a hole in my back pocket and am trying to convince the wife to let me drive across country this summer (simply not going to happen) but we do plan on joining the "trailer queen" community and bringing it to as many events as possible, and Columbus is at the top of my list.

Wayne;
How is your progress coming along?


Ray;
I want a CRX now... thanks for the video on your thread,, that looks like a blast! I will have my wife contact you and your buddies to explain why i now need to do that as well. LOL

[Motown 454]

I'm doing some small parts, its been pretty cold here without insulation or a ceiling its tuff to keep any heat in the garage. But springs around the corner.

[SDS MACHINING]

Boise Roadster Show results.
A great collection of cars at this single "A" ISCA event. We are happy to report we won 5 total awards and a little cash:G-Dub: .
First Place Pro-Touring, Outstanding Full Radical Hand built Custom, Outstanding Muscle Car of the Show, Outstanding Individual Display, and Most Popular Peoples Choice.
https://static1.pt-content.com/images/noimg.gif
Overwhelmed by the success the past few months have brought us and we are looking forward to the Portland show coming up this weekend.
We showed the car on the ground during the show on Sunday as it takes on an entire different perspective, it allows everyone to really see the car at its best angle.

Just found this thread....Killer job, very well thought out and executed. Wished you would have had it at Puyallup Good Guys, would have LOVED to seen it in person. The awards the car is receiving are not surprising :hail:

[icemanrd19]

what did you use to paint your window molding? Mine isnt holding up to well

[SDS MACHINING]

Puyallup is on the list for next year for sure, after the trip to Lafayette i was pretty burned out of the show scene and needed to get back to work.
which window moldings are you referring too?

[icemanrd19]

quarter glass

[KHShapiro]

i thought at one point there was going to be a build page to show your one offs? an impressive labor of love !
