Project 'Grip'- 69 Camaro

[Payton King]

Car looks great by the way!

I would keep the 6 degrees. Sub frame should have enough adjustment to move it forward. Make sure when you are moving it forward you have the core support loose, and steering column at the firewall seal and under the dash. No need to take it off of the steering box.

You're welcome Sir and I hope I didn't cause you any concern. If Brett said six, then that will be best for handling based on their geometry and spindle KPI. As far as looks...that's a compromise only you can make. If it's rubbing, you gotta look into that and see what can be done. Caster can be gotten in more than one way. Call RT and I guarantee you'll be happy with their service.

I say function over form these days. I blame 'Secret Sauce' for that

Thanks Payton. I still have a long road ahead but by doing it in stages I enjoy it in between. Lol.

I didn't realize there was adjustment in the frame to body mounts. That's great to hear because I have a set of stock height aluminum frame bushings waiting for me at the shop.

Nice job Dave, the shot of it layed out has got to be the money shot!!

What are your overall plans for the car? I love how your building it in stages, keeps it from being a loooong project for sure.

Thanks Rick. Overall plans.....next year LS3 with Procharger and 6speed....year after body, paint, interior. Probably do a few custom metal mods for the body here and there. I'm really liking some of the mods I'm seeing in here. If I can pull off mild side skirts, a milder wing (really like Razor), and custom valence I'll be happy. Its all just for fun for me. I love fabricating. Its my favorite part of the build.
