[Motown 454]

[Shortrusty]

[FRENCHBLUE72]

[1968CamaroSS_Sam]

Wayne, The car looks great. You gotta love that quality in workmanship. Looks awesome!

[SSable]

looking good bud! whats the color going to be?

[Motown 454]

Thanks everyone!
SSable Still up in the air but I like a burnt orange on the Eclipse or something in that family. It tuff to make a choice so many nice colors.
I was out in the garage tonight and took this picture. I've wanted to see one of my wheel on the car since I bought them.

[Smock67]

Looking awesome your patience certainly paid off.

[r.a.w.rods]

Man the wheels look great on there.

Hi Guys Mike sent me a few more pictures from when he was painting the bottom of the car.
Here are a few more pictures of the floor and one of the tunnel he raised for my T56.

Wayne, keep the pictures coming! I know you waited longer than I could have but that is some of the best quality workmanship that I have seen! I understand that Mike is getting out of Pro-touring and getting back to strictly pro mod and building drag racing cars

Did you get one of his back seat frames? I was inquiring with him about a month ago and he said that his molds were in storage and wasn't sure if he would make any more. I'm glad that you have one of the last camaros that Mike has built.

[Motown 454]

Thanks Steve; I was hoping to get a seat and some of the tail lights he was making but he's not doing either one right now, plus the cash is in slow flow mode right now.

[Motown 454]

Here are a few of the tunnel being done.

[Motown 454]

Here's the Fab 9 going together.









and in the car.

[Motown 454]

You guys remember Those nice DSE subframe connectors that were put in my car How fr**kin well do you think they will work without these attached!

Do you believe this!
Floor all painted sub frame powdercoated and I get this.






NOW WHAT

[Payton King]

Two choices:

Weld to sub connectors, spot paint and use bolts to attack to sub frame.

Custom make some plates and bolt it in on both sides

I know it sucks...I feel you pain. Look at my trunk, it was suppose to go in with no trunk floor alteration.

[Payton King]

Just looked again. Sub frame bolt does not need that nylon washer either.

[Motown 454]

I just figured these were done already.

[Rod]

ummm, they couldn't connect the subframes without the subframe, just weld it up and touch up the paint

[MonzaRacer]

Yep minimal grinding t oget clean metal, tack and weld them together and let it roll. Looks like they weld to end of sub then reach each side of connector so its minimal touch up and simple line up and weld. Looks good though.
