A few more SEMA pics...
I'm exhausted.. beat.. sore.. between all the work meetings and "walkabouts" SEMA almost killed me. lol
It was great meeting so many of you, I only regret not having more time to hang out with more people. Seemed like I constantly had somewhere to go. At least I had some time to hang aroung my car.
Here are some shots, I will post more throughout the day. So many nice cars this year.

great pics Steve. Thanks for sharing.
Does anyone have more info on the black camaro with the silver inlays and wing? What about the flat gray and green chevelle? Those two really did it for me. I'm also liking the wheels on the KD ZL1 camaro the more I look at it. Very smooth car. You guys did great Kenny.Trey

I had two "do you what to sell? How much?" guys.. I said, "no, but if I got the right offer..." They took my card.

I was there for one of them I think, Wednesday afternoon late. I meant to ask you if I heard him right. Originally Posted by Steve1968LS2

Your car is completly bad ass... one of my favorites. And first on my list is trying to get it shot before your weather goes bad. Originally Posted by Van B

I know everybody on this forum compliments you on Penny but honestly from the pictures I have seen I she was easily my favorite car at sema, granted I wasnt there so I couldnt fully experience it, but it is just so perfect, the paint/wheel combination, the stance everything working together...Mr. Rupp, hands down you have built a perfect pro-touring car...in my eyes at least, I hope one day I can check Penny out in real life, maybe when I come check out colleges out in cali I will get a chance to check her out...regardless, I love you car and hope you dont sell her, I cant wait to see what you do with the fairlane, if that thing turns out half as good as Penny, it will be better than most cars out there...Keep up the good work!!!!!!

There may have been others with more money thrown at them, but for a truly bitchin REAL car Penny does it for me. Sorry we did not cross paths Thursday night so I could have said it in person. Very nicely done Steve.

This car was built by Total Performance www.tpitotalperformance.com out of Wichita Kansas (bout 100 miles west of me). They are also building Eleanor mustangs as well. Talked with the guys a month or so ago and they are building 50 of these I believe with something like 10 with Nascar engines in them. I think they have 7 sold right now. This one had the Nascar engine but I believe they have an all aluminum 427 option. Awesome car - one of my all time favorites. Originally Posted by stryfe101

I have to say Penny is so basic yet over the top,old school yet new tech and of all the cars at the show Penny was the only one that had a new car smell, the carpet and leather had to be what was making it but it was amazing how it could have been on a show room floor 40+ years ago and not have been out of place.
Great job Steve!!!!
