First Gen Camaro grille treatment ?

[Tim Baillie]

Looking for pictures from people who have done something other then stock with their camaro's.

Got a 69 with the DSE electric headlight doors but he wants to do something other then the stock grille. I would like to do something other then your typical billet insert.

Thanks

This car was at SEMA.. it had a mesh grill with a billet verticle bar. It's not RS, but maybe it will inspire an idea.

Does anyone have a clearer picture of this car ?

It has some trick rearlights too.

Not to toot my own horn but there's quite a few pics of it on my site

As you can tell from the car, it's not another Camaro with a cowl hood and Z/28 stripes. No offense to guys running that treatment. The customer said "make it different" which is tough to do with a 69 Camaro and that's how we came up with the hood, grille, fender vents, taillights, nose stripe, etc.

I'm flattered by the attention the car is getting for being different but if you truly want something different and unique, you should hire a designer as my client did.

And here's the shop that built the car. They do have some build shots on the site.

I thought the car was nicely done, not "overboard".

Thanks Steve! Like I say, less is more!

Sorry to change the subject but...
Toot away... that picture proves that wheels make the car (along with other things of course).
The "other" wheels pictured dont do that car justice like the black ones do.

wheels do make a car steve, It just really proves it on this car.

Thanks Steve! I'm obviously partial but I totally agree and had a ton of people at SEMA say the same thing. Wheels and stance are everything and the new ones transformed that car!

I want that hood so bad, I'm tempted to get my fiberglass guy to make me one that helps cool the car.
