Finally some decent weather

[XcYZ]

Well, we finally got some nice weather so I could roll the car outside and take some shots of it out in the sunlight to really show what an awesome job that Kurt and Paul at Autokraft did with the car.

I'm waiting on a pair of braided flex line for the brakes and it's ready to drive. Hopefully the door panels and back seat will be done soon.

Absolutly AWESOME!!!! :hail:

Love it but i want to drive it Bob

[ProdigyCustoms]

I REALLY like it. And I was wondering as I looked at it when was the last time I saw a really trick red Pro Touring 69 Camaro? As popular and over used as red is in the restoration original world, I cannot think of another red 69 PT car off the top of my head.

Very nice

[NOT A TA]

Looks great!

[NovaBlue71]

Just Awsome Scott:hail: Kurt and Paul (AutoKraft) my hat's off to you guy's:thumbsup: Joe

[slck6t9]

Scott the car looks better then great if there is such a way. Can't wait to see how the interior comes out. :thumbsup:

[XcYZ]

Thanks guys! I might lower it a bit, but I'm waiting until the car is 100% finished before getting too worried about ride height.

The only other one, I can think of, was Shay's 69.

Scott, Awesome job, I'm loving this car. Being iun Winnipeg, I can truly understand the "finally nice weather" statement. I just pulled my car out of the corner of the garage yesterday.

[Tom.A]

Looks great! Congrats Scott.

Looks great Scott!!

Quick question: Do you plan on putting the drip rail trim back on??

It looks great without them, and I am debating whether I put them back on or not myself.

[eville]

The car looks fantastic Scott!

Kinda hard to forget about Ned's camaro as it's on the cover this month! ;)

[Speedster]

Now we know why the 69 Camaro is the epitome of the muscle car era.
I am jealous. What an awesome project you have.

[comp-spec]

Nice job Autokraft

[rallye455]

What size are the tires and wheels?

[coolclassiccars]

wow scott ,looks bad a$$,is the front bumper an enduro, or a smoothed out steel?:bow:

[zbugger]

That looks incredible, Scott. I can't wait to see you making more video of it on the road.

[tones2SS]

"ANOTHER" awesome car on lateral-g.net.
VERY NICELY DONE!! Good job on the paint.:thumbsup: :hail: :thumbsup: :cheers:

[96z28ss]

Scott, your car is perfect man!!
Doesn't that front bumper gap neend to be closed up a bit more. I thought the endura bumpers were tighter to the body lines.

[The WidowMaker]

that thing looks awesome.....

what color red is that? also, how did you get a parking brake on there with those c6 calipers? judging from the chock block, im not sure that you did, but just wondering.

Tim

[XcYZ]

Thanks again, guys. :cheers:


What size are the tires and wheels?

They are 275's on 18x9.5's and 335's 18x12's.


wow scott ,looks bad a$$,is the front bumper an enduro, or a smoothed out steel?:bow:

It's an Endura. I really like that look.

It's extremely tight to the body, it definitely can't get any closer.

It's a custom 'recipe' that Autokraft put together after I had some spray-outs done.

The wheel chock isn't needed, I have a parking brake in the car, but the wheel chocks have always been put in to place by my 7 year old son when I'm rolling the car around. He really gets excited that he gets to help me work on the car. When he runs to get the chocks, I don't have the heart to tell him that I don't need them anymore. :)

Here's the info on the drum-in-hat parking brake setup that I'm using:

I can think of one....:_paranoid April feature? Just messin' with you Scott, ofcourse I love this thing, other than that horrible shade of red it's pretty much my evil twin!:lol: As you know, took mine on the maiden voyage today. Man did it feel good! You will be very happy when you get to drive yours!:cheers:

[Sales@Dutchboys]

BAD A$$! Im thinking we need some tire testing videos soon! :thumbsup:

Paul

[Rybar]

KILLER news Scott, you deserve this as much as anybody my friend! Car looks SICK. Love everything I mean EVERYTHING you have done. :thumbsup: Now get it on the road I want some burnout videos :lol: Wish I was closer so I could buy you a beer bud :cheers:

[XcYZ]

Thanks again, guys. I can't wait to drive it! :willy:

[eville]

What headlights are you running Scott?

[camcojb]

I typed a response yesterday, but it seems it didn't take. Congrats Scott, the car looks incredible. And many thanks to Kurt for doing such a fantastic job, and staying on (actually ahead of) schedule, very rare in todays world.:thumbsup:

[clill]

I hate red Pro-touring cars.

[Musclerodz]

Looks great Scott. Now its time to start another one!

[XcYZ]

What headlights are you running Scott?

Oops, sorry, forgot to answer your question earlier in the thread. The headlights are DSE Bright Drivers. Really nice pieces.


I hate red Pro-touring cars.

I'll take that as a compliment as you've owned a few boring red Camaros. :D

[Stang's Bane]

AMAZING. I can't get enough of this car. :woot:

Sounds like we will be on the road around the same time!!

[rwhite692]

Hey Scott, she's looking so damn good!!

Don't worry I won't let the 434 see those pics (I don't want her to cry!)

[BC69]

I think you should just let some of us members here take over Lateral-g for a couple weeks while you get in the garage and finish up. :thumbsup: :unibrow: :D We will only make tasteful changes.

Looking good!

[byndbad914]

car looks great! I too hear you about the weather - I had a 3-day weekend (we work 9hr days so every other Fri is off) and the weather was awesome here in Colorado so I worked on the race car quite a bit as well. It has been months of walking into the garage, letting the cold set in within 2 minutes, then just walking back into the house :P

I wouldn't lower the car IMO if it is mostly a streeter. I think it looks great right where it is at with a little rubber showing at the fender - it actually looks like a muscle car, as it should be. I would only lower if road racing it a lot and needing a lower cg or to correct geometry issues. Lowering may in fact screw up geometry thru motion... that would have to be verified of course.

Maybe lower it in the front for a little rake (I am partial to the old-skool hot rod rake that I grew up with on muscle cars). Get a bit of the look that started it all

[ccracin]

:hail: Simply awesome. Video please?:hail: :lateral:

[Streetking]

Looks really nice Scott, I bet you can't wait to drive it, I know I can't..:D

[Lenie]

Looks good Scott. I still love the way that car sounds on your homepage video.:hail:

[redfire69]

Wow... just awesome! Looks like you've got the 3D standard taillights? Prototypes I guess? I'm waiting for the 3D moderns myself :thumbsup:

[Roger Poirier]

:yes: Very sweet indeed! I love the stance.... Those new rims make the car, nice touch with the updated mirrors.

R.P.

[tellyv]

are you going to make it to the wi dells car show?

[XcYZ]

Wow... just awesome! Looks like you've got the 3D standard taillights? Prototypes I guess? I'm waiting for the 3D moderns myself :thumbsup:

Yep, they are the 3D standards. Extremely nice pieces.


are you going to make it to the wi dells car show?

Yep, already have my reservations. :)

[trapin]

Nice job, Scott. Get some rest now. Power Tour is just around the corner.

[awr68]

Scott, are we driving it yet? :unibrow:

[aany001]

Scott your car looks absolutely crazy!!!!!! you must be proud of finally finishing it.What mirrors are you running? :bow:

[aany001]

never mind Tony are you drivin yours yet???????

[trapin]

Which Tony? Me or Anthony? We're both Anthonys by the way. LOL!!!!

[Nine Ball]

Still one of my favorite RED Camaros, and you know how I hate red 1st gens. haha

I'm just glad that there are others out there that prefer OEM style paint themes and like the classic look. Too many two-toned Foose wannabe cars out there, but this look you have is timeless and will never go out of style.

[7TSS]

Great job!! How much more til the maiden voyage?
