I have been on Mikes custom cars web site looking at Kjells 69 Camaro. Can anyone tell me how he's getting these DSE Deep tubs from 2.75 inchs to 4.75 inchs ?? I can see in the pictures on album five that he extended the wheel lip,I understand this. But what I do'nt understand is ,did he narrow the trunk floor and frame rails?? to get the extra 2.00 inchs. None of the pictures show. Its such a perfect clean fit I would love to do this for the extra tire width and ride hight:yes:

If you look closely from pic 12 + you can see that the rails were moved inboard quite a bit.

Hi Guys Mike is developing a st of frame rails to do what he did on Kjel's car. If you shoot him an email he can let you know when they will be ready. He did a slick job on the trunk floor too, to alot of people they won't even notice it has no well in it . Mike is doing my car I stink at posting pictures so Its not on here . Check under Wayne in projects section.

The owner of this car ask to have this done. He like what Pasquel did with the Orion Camaro. I tried to get Mike to do the same for me not a chance,way to busy..Even asked Pasquel.If I could get someone to do this I would have it done in a second .

Did you see the price. $1100 that seems alittle steep to me. Most of us are planning on running a aftermarket 4 link. I think you would be better off using straight rails like the ones from 21st century and getting a different tank. With these rails that he has you still need to modify the trunk pan and get a aftermarket tank.

I really dont see the advantage. JMO

Well I like the factory look . Mikes parts are topnotch as it shows on his web site. I know that they are a little pricey compaired to the other rails, but I just do'nt like the generic look of the other rails thats just me! Also dealing with Mike has been awsome he takes time to answer all my PM's :yes: no bs!!

Guys check out this pic of the new rails.
I really love what Mike is doing here, was going to do something similar myself but he beat me to it.

Mike's work is top notch.

Looks good! Do you have to use a c/o based suspension or will leafs with off-set shackles still work?

You can run leafs w/off set shackles up to a 315mm on 67-68 and 345mm on 69 .You will need to run a 4-link suspension to run a 355mm or bigger tire on 69 bodys.

Thanks Mario. Do you plan to run a fuel cell inside your trunk? Doesn't look like much room for a fuel tank with that type of exhaust.

That's very cool. I'd love to see some pics once the exhaust and tank are installed. That's going to be one very unique set up. Is Mike making a tank for you as well?
