Default HPI Customs Project RS-V : LSA Powered Dynacorn Camaro

EDIT: PICS ADDED Starting page 2. I got a photobucket!!!
Hello to everyone on Lateral-G!

We are a growing shop in Manitoba, Canada, and would love to share some of our projects with you! Here is RS-V, a 1969 Dynacorn Camaro convertible riding on Speedtech front subframe and torque arm, sporting Kore3 Z06 brakes, Rushforth/Nitto wheels and tires, and a GM LSA crate engine/TCI 6speed auto as well as:
-Ring brothers door handles
-American autowire Highway 22
-Vintage air
-Marquez tail lights
-Rick's stainless tank
-Stainlessworks headers
-Afco double pass rad and intercooler
-ATS spindles
-Lizard skin

almost everything on this car has been modified. Major mods include :
-2009 Cadillac CTS-V Dash, console, gauges, entertainment package custom fit for an oem look
-Custom windshield frame/flush fitting convertible top
-Custom oval/arched styling bar
-Front end sheet metal welded together
-Molded in steel spoiler
-Custom brake scoop/styling vents
-Minitubbed with the new Dynacorn full tubs
-Hidden wiring/ac lines (master milspec connector on firewall)

-Custom designed/cnc steering wheel hub, baseplate, horn plate that has the tci wireless paddle shifter and display seamlessly integrated.
-Custom cnc motor mounts to fit the GM low mount accessory drive into the Speedtech Subframe

-Custom 3 inch stainless exhaust with cnc stainless tips that match the tail light bezels
-CNC/custom flush fuel filler/door
-custom sheet metal hood to match side vents (styled after a stinger, but very subtle) with cnc vents
-Custom lower valance/intercooler scoops
-Narrowed bumpers
etc etc!
The car is being assembled now, paint is done. I will save that for later!
Enjoy

Very interesting project. Been waiting for someone to use that dash.

Tried viewing pics of it. Wouldn't let me get past #5 (?) http://www.hpicustoms.com/projects.html

Sorry our website is being totally redone right now so we haven't updated it. The car is painted and being assembled, I will get some more pics up.

Looking forward to seeing them.

How did the process go of making the CTS-V dash fit?

had to remove about 8 inches of the ctsv dash, and rewrap the covering after making our shape. we also reshaped the speaker grills to fit what we needed and then made mounts to the firewall and pillars.
