      On the Unique site it talks about having a Chris Alston's Chassisworks front subframe and power rack... What? I have Alston's front subframe and the manual rack, which I thought was their only option. I even called again not 2 weeks ago and asked for any other options for another rack setup - and there was none.
      I just was at chris alston chassis works and asked about this. As of TODAY they are selling kits for power racks now. The ones on Uniques car were the first but the brackets were prototypes. They just got the "real" brackets in today. They are selling them to the public now.

      I like the way the car looks overall.
      The main thing that always bugs me about FOOSE cars, No rearview mirrors! I know this seems a little pety but I can not see sacrificing functionality that much. If Alice (my Camaro) were ever overhauled I would tell him to put some f*&^%ng mirrors on it. I think it looks a little better w/ them too. He takes the whole shaved thing TOO far. This theory applies to the use of spoilers as well but given this cars paint job it looks good.

      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
      Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

      I was at Columbus this year when this car was there...didnt know so didnt get a look at it( foose camaro)....but did see UNIQUE's stuff ...man what a let down, poor poor paint and fit & finish. For the money they get out of these cars ( foose camaro too) I would want a little nicer car. So can you expect the same poor quality on the Camaro 's as well... other than the "want it now" attitude ...these cars have little to offer and could be replicated much cheaper..

      A friend of mine put it like this..." this car is about getting paid! "
      and getting paid good I might add!

      I was wondering if anyone knows if the rear suspension setup that was on the Foose car is worth looking into or not. I think I saw an add in a recent PHR. for Unique Performance and they were showing what looked like the same suspension.

      Aha, sure enough Tony, you're right. It's about $800, not including the PS pump... Sure, don't offer the power rack if I call, but if FOOSE calls...

      Since the wheel is so tucked, and it looks like the quarter has some massaging done to it, it doesn't look to out of place. The car definitely has excellent craftsmanship all around. I'm guessing that guy is asking over $200k.

      I have noticed that. Almost every car they did on the show are two toned but, his Riddler winner was solid silver.

      In the area of $5,000 without differential and axels.
      The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.

      The way you like to knock the Black '69 from in the Columbus thread, and the Foose Camaro, I can't wait to see your finished car, it should be king of the world!!!!

      That's still a hell of a lot of money, but for some reason with the prices being so completely ridiculous these days, I thought he'd be asking even more. Still though, damn that is a lot of money

      I liked the paint, didn't dig the lack of rear spoiler, liked the additional coachwork, didn't dig the big-block, didn't dig the suspension.

      With all the work they did on the additional coachwork, Id have thought they might have come up with an original treatment for a rear spoiler. Oh well, cool car and I sure wouldn't spit in Chip's eye if he offered it to me, but I wouldn't have done it that way myself.
