Well I have a few other pictures to post.

Got some of the floor patched up. Since no place makes floor pans for Gen 4 Camaro's we had to make a filler patch. No big deal to make it just takes a little bit of extra to fab out the parts.



Well this is the mid plate I had to install



It went in with really no problems and was cut and dry. Very clean looking and the bends really help the fit.





The engine then was pulled back out to do some more welding and fitting of other parts. While it's out all the little misc holes can be filled and patches can be done along with the metal prep side of things.





Around back the parachute mount was made. Dennis made it nice and clean looking along with adding a little style to it.





Next he played around with tire placement. It is kind of tricky to fit the 275 & 315 tire inside and keeping a balanced look. The other issue with the Camaro is to run a wider tire and make the ride height of the car the way we want it the tires have to be set in a little. If you don't set the tire inside the upper lip area the car will be raked a little much. This is done with a narrow rear and big offset on the wheels. The nice thing is the rear wheels have a deep dish and I think look great on the car. Also this thing should sit nice and low.









Well I hope to be able to post a few more in the coming weeks. As I get them I will post them. Thanks EK

I hope to have some pictures to put up soon. I've just had a really busy few months and haven't had time to do many update posts etc... But that doesn't mean the car hasen't been getting worked on.

I go to DMC the 3rd week in December to go get the car. When I get it I will bring it home and wire it then hopefully some time early next year test. I have pictures on my phone that Dennis texts me but none of the that were taken with a camera so I don't want to post cell phone pictures. Once he sends me the good shots I can post them. I have a busy few weeks in front of me with over seas trips and stuff so I will post stuff once I can.

Thanks EK
