[DONGEE6773]

[cjhutch]

I like it, I like it a lot. Those wheels look like budnik gassers. Now let us see some pics of that interior. What kind of subframe is that?

[MangeMD]

That is a sweet ride bro!

[Stu Seitz]

I'm guessing you got that hood off a 2002 SS? How much modification did you have to do to make it fit? Or is it a tottaly one off peice?

BTW got any stats/numbers on car, hp/trq, wheel size?

[Ralph LoGrasso]

Stuart,

Year One sells the hood. www.yearone.com

[67Sally]

Nice car.

Can some one provide me with some details about the rear spoiler.

[Pzary3233]

Nice car.

Can some one provide me with some details about the rear spoiler.

That should be a 69 T/A Wing that is sold by many pointac restoration companies such as Ames and Year One.

[gchandler]

The subframe looks like is a 1969 camaro subframe. :)

[sunkistcamaro]

Sweet Camaro!!
Very very nice

[sunkistcamaro]

The pics are in the Multimedia forum.

[cjhutch]

I guess I should have rephrased that question. I wanted to know what modifications if any were done to the subframe. I see the DSE uppers, just curious if there was anything else special done to it.

[Ralph LoGrasso]

Threads merged, please do not create 3 threads on the same topic. Thanks for your cooperation.

[THE PEARL CYCLONE]

Interior not finished yet.

[THE PEARL CYCLONE]

DSE built the complete subframe with all there bells and whisles.

[THE PEARL CYCLONE]

[TonyL]

DO NOT post several threads on the same topic. You already have this thread.....
you have been warned.

[1970ls6]

Nice 69, what make/size wheels do you have on there?

[Matt@RFR]

Pearl, you've allready been warned once by another moderator. You need to stop making new threads about your car. Stick to one thread, preferably in the multimedia or new cars sections. If you keep this up, your threads will just be deleted.

[THE PEARL CYCLONE]

Nice 69, what make/size wheels do you have on there?
Budnik 17", 8" FRONTS, 11.5 REARS

[MarkM66]

Nice '69! Not the ULTIMATE, but nice nonetheless.

[TonyL]

Mark, we all know what the "ultimate" 69 looks like...

lol

[MarkM66]

Yeah, it's one at the top of my list. :)

[yody]

nice car, but the "Ultimate" 69 protouring.....hardly. Very nice car with nice DSE parts, congratulations it should be fun to drive.

[69ratfed]

What year are the Firebird front seats in Cyclone?

[69ratfed]

I found out the seats are 2002 Trans Am/Firebird seats. I would like to know how much trouble they were to put in?
Thank you.

[Nine Ball]

4th gen f-body seats are simple to install. The front two mounting holes line up perfectly with the 69 bolt holes. You only have to cut/modify/weld the rear mounting holes. Here are some pics I made of my conversion:

I still crack up at the ULTIMATE usage in this thread :)

[MrQuick]

dude that car kicks ass! any more info on it??

[ProdigyCustoms]

Vince, what the hell are you doing? We finally got him to stop posting about this thing, LOL! He is freakin amazing, he joined at GP Store. Hi, my name is so and so, I own the Pearl Cyclone, you may have seen it on page bla bla bla of PHR, pick up a copy.

[ilovefirstgens]

Nice car....

BUT nobody can title their car "The Ultimate" even if it was! I as well as just about everyone here knows that the ultimate pro touring 69 would not have a 700r4! And what makes the hood a "one peice" umm that you had to fit a peice of fiberglass... who does that? haha

If not for the title id love the car! However its far from out of the ordinary here, and cockyness is just something i dont take kindly to.

Okay the rain on this guys parade is over!

[vanzuuk1]

Has anyone ever met this guy? Is he as insane in person as he appears on the 'net?

On the one hand I hate to bash a guy whos never done anything to me personally but...

Also, has He seen "Phaseshifts" car? I may have the spelling wrong but the fab work on that car was insane.

[LowBuckX]

My god MAN 38 posts and they are almost ALL tooting your own horn. Do you need DAily affirmations or what... Damn.. Ultimate NO!!! OK yes.
Its white and plain jane to me.


Well At least you race it... This is a tire scuff right???

[TonyL]

I still havent heard why the "ultimate" 69 camaro has its armrests upside down. anyone? Beuller?

[derekf]

Chill out, y'all. He hasn't posted in better than five months (but he does still read the board). Yes, he went a bit over the top on tooting his car's horn - but that's well in the past.

[vanzuuk1]

Did anyone see the guy who did the " a street racer is..." , he was on the subaru site and he did a little photoshop of him looking tuff next to his wrx. He posted the pic with a little haiku or poem and he was roasted beyond comprehension. I think he changed his name when it was over.

[USAZR1]

Yes, he went a bit over the top on tooting his car's horn.

Yeah,like that doesn't happen on here very often. :lol:

[Andrew McBride]

It is a nice car. Looks like a lot of time and money went into the project and he is proud of his car. No need to bash his car, or talk about the dude. I agree he has posted quite a few topics on the same car.

This is part of the reason why I don't post over here that often. Learn to keep your thoughts to yourself and have a bit more admiration towards others. At least care enough to represent pro-touring in a mature manner.
