Affliction

[JETSET700]

I've had this car since 84' & this the third build. It was a
completly rust free car when I got it. The car has an LS7, ATS headers,
ATS pan, Peterson oil tank kit from ATS & ATS Sidewinder, UMI TB
and MEFI4 controller & harness. Ron Davis radiator, Ricks stainless tank.


I replaced the whole electrical system with painless 18 curcuit.
Vintage air AC

I used DSE control arms, coils & sway bar with ATS's AFX spindles,
670 steering gear. C5 brakes, Hydroboost.

Out back will be DSE Quadralink with a narrowed 9" and deep tubs.
ATS splined sway bar. It should be in soon.

Looks good !
Who's accessory drive system are you using ?
ps... nice garage !

[Spiffav8]

Peter the car looks awesome!

Where are you located?

[James OLC]

Very nice looking project, should be an awesome car (again) when this version is finished. :thumbsup: Good luck.

Looks good !
Who's accessory drive system are you using ?


That is an ATS Sidewinder setup; ultra stable even at high RPMs. Simply the best out there.

[awr68]

Very nice project! You will love it even more than before!! Are you doing SFC's?

[JETSET700]

Thanks for the great replies!

Accessory drive is ATS Sidewinder as reboot stated.

Subframe connectors are DSE and are going in with Quadralink.
They are a must.

Thanks so much to Tyler at ATS for tech advise and service cubed.
The car has alot of his products all bad ass!

Hello Peter;

NICE work you've done on that Camaro. No shortcuts there. :thumbsup:

Question: the black anodized AN fittings and black braided hose - what brand? (looks like they were running to a remote oil filter?)

Reason I'm asking is because I'm trying to find a brand of plumbing that has matching colors for power steering fittings/hoses as well as the rest of the plumbing. So far - no luck at all.

Thanks in advance. Keep up the great work. Be sure to post pics when it's done - and no longer afflicting you - lol.


Dale

[Teetoe_Jones]

Dale-

We provided the hose and fittings- they are all from Earls.

Car looks good Pete. Get back home and get wrenching on it before it is 117 degrees outside.

Tyler

[olds87]

I think he in Arizona, the car look nice. :thumbsup:

[XcYZ]

Cool, more pics please. :yes:

[Stuart Adams]

Very Nice.

[JETSET700]

I just got my DSE Quadralink stuff & narrowed 9" brackets on, all powder
coated, aluminum center 3.70 gears. Tubs are here too!
It's time to get a wheel & tire order together. I'm having a local shop do the install as I want it done better than I could do it. They do high end vintage racecar restorations and will do a great job!

Peter

[JETSET700]

A few new pics of exhaust to be used and one large wheel to test fit after
the Quadralink install. The mufflers are Corsa and the X-pipe is fabbed.

Peter

[JETSET700]

The tubs are not in so the wheel just on full width axle to see it.
I've been really busy of late and its really hot here these days so
I'm not getting much done. I should have A/C'ed the garage!

Peter

[Spiffav8]

Looks like some great progress. I dig those wheels! :thumbsup:

[waynieZ]

Looks sweet Black car with those wheels car looks great

[tones2SS]

That's going to be a sweet car when done.:thumbsup:
Wheels look good on that car. And good choice with the LS7.:thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Got any videos of her idling/reving?

[HWY Nova]

Awesome choice on wheels! They look great on your car.

[JETSET700]

Here is an update of my car progress.

Install of Quadralink suspension, DSE tubs, DSE subframe connectors

all fully TIG welded.

Peter

[Vegas69]

Awesome work and car.

[jack67rs]

Very nice work, How much more work do you have left?

[WILWAXU]

Killer fabrication work! :thumbsup:

Not much you can say bad about that setup.

[7TSS]

Excellent workmanship :thumbsup:

[lil427z]

:thumbsup: :cheers: :woot: :lateral:
rick k

[awr68]

Quality!! :woot:

[Tom.A]

Killer car. It looks like paint is all done? Were you nervous about cutting and adding the tubs in?

[tones2SS]

Can't wait to see it done.
Looks awesome already.:hail: :thumbsup:

[bigtyme1]

SWEET HRE's, do you have stock front spindles?

[JETSET700]

Thanks for all the possitive feedback.
I hope to have the car done this winter. After checking the fitment I
will order wheels & tires this week. The wheel in earlier post is just to
test fit.

It has been great fun to build but I'm ready to drive! I've had this thing
since 84' & its been on the back burner since 93'. Now four years to get it where it is today.

[markss28]

SWEET HRE's, do you have stock front spindles?


I thought they where Fikse Wheels

[bigtyme1]

I thought they where Fikse Wheels

You are correct, I had to take a double look

[rich-allen]

Man, TIG welding the entire rear was painstaking!

What a chore.

Is there a reason you decided to TIG vs MIG? Just curious on your theory.

Oh, Killer car!

Vent windows forever :thumbsup:

[JETSET700]

Tom, yes we had to support the car very well. The car was on a level steel
work platform then braced firm. This is all very important as we cut across
the whole trunk. Not a place to shortcut if you want the car true. We also
put the SFC in so this support helped that come out good.

The car has ATS spindles, as for the welds being TIG Rich there is no real
reason. The work was indeed tedeous, Ryan deserves huge credit for alot of
great welding in awkward positions. It took alot of time & massive amounts
of material.

Peter

[Spiffav8]

How about some updated pics!

:unibrow:

[JETSET700]

Hey Curtis, I saw you have to sell your car to bad that sucks! It is a good excuse
to build another in the future.

The pics of the tub & Quadralink install are the most recent. They are also
fabbing my intake tube & exhaust system out of pieces I brought them.
It will be ATS headers to 3", 3" fabbed X-pipe (earlier post pic) 3" back to a
set of 2.5 Corsa mufflers then full tail pipes.

Yeah it has to go. Might be doing the Fly Dubai gig for awhile, we'll see.

Looks like I might need to jump seat down and have a look at your project one of these days soon. Always fun to watch them coming together.

[JETSET700]

The Quadralink is in & the SS 3" exhaust is in. Fabbed X-pipe, 2.5" Corsa mufflers, full talepipes.

I just recieved the wheels Fikse Profil 5S.
Front 18X8 245/35 Michelin PS2's
Rear 18X11 315/30.

[awr68]

Looks great!! Nice car!! :thumbsup:

[JETSET700]

SS exhaust, oil tank brackets, intake tube.

[JETSET700]

Next I will Paint the bare metal and seam seal all the welds & gaps.

Peter

[GHOSTDANCER]

Looks great ! Are you going to remove the front wheel well trim ? :thumbsup: :cheers:

[Spiffav8]

Looking good! The new wheels rock!

When do you think you'll have it done?

[JETSET700]

I'm not sure on the trim. I have all four pieces NOS.

Thanks Curtis, a family friend helped start Fikse. I've always wanted to run their wheels.
I'm hoping to start it in JAN

Peter

[waynieZ]

You have a beautiful car . I love those Fikse wheels, and mounted on a black car makes them sparkle even more . Nice work.

Wayne

Thanks Wayne, I've had the car 24 years & its never looked
anything like this before. I've done all the planing alot of the work
but had great help on the body & paint, Quadralink install, exhaust.

In the pics of wheels I'm just ckecking initial ride height. Thats the
first time it had weight on wheels with correct size. Not all of the
weight is in it yet so I will leave the front for now & of course the
rear is fully adjustable.

Peter

[Will 427]

Looking great Peter. Can't wait for the finished product! Nice choice on wheels.

:thumbsup:

[JETSET700]

Here are pics of latest work. I removed the Qlink, exhaust, masked the
allready painted car (PITA) then preped & sprayed DP90 on the new steel.
It has DSE subframe connectors, Quadrlink, & tubs now. At home its hard
to get the car high enough to spray bottom also the front side of the
upper shock crossmember is hard to get to.

Then seam sealer urethane superpro, another coat of DP, undercoating
on wheel wells, frame rails, shock crossmember, trunk spatter to match
what was allready there.

Peter

[JETSET700]

Next I will Dynamat the firewall & floor etc. I can make some real progress now! Hope to start it in JAN.

Peter

[awr68]

Nicely done! Thanks for the update! :thumbsup:

[clill]

Great looking car. I like what still looks like the 327 emblem on the fender.......

[tones2SS]

That is looking awesome!!!:thumbsup:

[JETSET700]

Thanks charlie, I like the emblems on look. If everyone cleaned their car up
they would all look the same. Same with bumpers & chrome.

Peter

[JETSET700]

Wheel opening trim is not going on.

Peter

[rlplive]

Awesome ride

[JETSET700]

Well JAN passed & it's not run yet! It's hard to make alot of progress right now. I'm finishing fuel lines, trunk wiring, fabbing SS brake lines for the rear axle & the Hydraboost/Wilwood master/prop valve.

Any advice on a proven tank vent system? I have a Rick's with A1000 pump.
Hopefully no gas odor.

Peter

[Rybar]

Fantastic project Peter. :thumbsup:

[javablack]

nice ride:thumbsup:

On my project we actually installed a s10 charcoal can. We've done it on several cars and no gas odor.

[fleetus macmullitz]

What's new on this bad boy?

[Spiffav8]

Yeah Peter...what's new?

Might be passing through in Sept. and would love to stop in and see the car. I suppose it would be nice to meet you too. :lol:

[GHOSTDANCER]

Wheel opening trim is not going on.

Peter

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[JETSET700]

Thanks to all for the posts. In late spring I started installing a racepack dash
setup, the dash insert is nearly done. We have been way too busy with other stuff & as it cools down I will be on the gas to get this thing done.

Peter

[fleetus macmullitz]

I prefer the non-RS look on 67's and IMO you don't see a lot of them.

Not like this anyways...:thumbsup:

[tones2SS]

Car looks great Peter. Very nice.:thumbsup:

[syborg tt]

Man this car is really turning out nice. Great work !!!!

[JETSET700]

Well I guess taking my time is an understatement at 4+ yrs & counting.
I can it getting done soon now though. I'll have more time as summer winds down.

Peter

[Spiffav8]

That PHX heat will slow you down big time!

[elitecustombody]

Looking great,man:thumbsup:

[fleetus macmullitz]

Any updates Peter?

[JETSET700]

Well I finally have started this car!
Working on some minor issues to prepare for the first drive.
Pics & Video to come for you all.

I really like the understated look Peter.

Hope you post some vids too so we can hear this thing run through the gears. :thumbsup:

[youthpastor]

Here are some pics after my first drive in the car.

I don't know what I'm more jealous of...the killer stance and wheels- or the fact you have sun and Christmas lights up-:D

[Spiffav8]

Awesome! Congrats. It's been a long time coming.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[ArisESQ]

looks perfect!!! i think you may have inspired me to keep my front bumper on!

[tones2SS]

Car looks killer. Very nice man.
Enjoy.:thumbsup: :cheers:

[T-Type]

I don't know what I'm more jealous of...the killer stance and wheels- or the fact you have sun and Christmas lights up-:D

haha, that's the exact thing that i was thinking of when i looked at the pics. i want a palm tree for a christmas tree!

sweet ride by the way. :thumbsup:

[Tom.A]

Very nice. Congrats

[OnEdge]

Car is unbelievable! I love the simplicity of it. Beautiful paint and exellent choice of wheels. It has got be an awesome feeling to have taken it for a drive.

[JETSET700]

My car has been at my friends shop for tuning and some chassis adjustments over the last few days.

H.P. - 451 at wheels
Tq - 432 at wheels

Right now it's a bone stock LS7 so I'm very happy with the numbers on a tune for drivability.

Peter

[Rybar]

Nice numbers, BTW the car looks sick :thumbsup:

[KPC67]

Your car is gorgeous.
You really nailed the stance. Great job:thumbsup:

[JETSET700]

Thanks to all, the stance is nailed because of previous examples that I have seen on sites like this. I love so many of your cars too.
Next is the front & rear glass & trim mouldings and finish what is left of the interior. I'll do some pics of some other aspects I need to show over the weekend.

Peter

[JETSET700]

Here is the CF dash insert for racepack.

[awr68]

Stunning! Love it!! :thumbsup:

[jack67rs]

Was wondering how you're doing on your car, turned out awesome. I guess we will be seeing it up close sooon? more pics please!

[rwhite692]

Car looks beautiful, Peter, Congrats on the first drive!

[JETSET700]

Thanks Jack, seeing your car at Goodguys last spring was motivation to get my ass in gear and finish my car. You and your friend were sitting by your car relaxed under umbrellas in lawn chairs. I wanted to have it at the NOV
Goodguys but could not meet that date.

Peter

[syborg tt]

Tyler

[JETSET700]

The dash was quite a long process. I made a design by modifying an existing dash with glass and filler, then Anvil Auto used it as a plug to produce a mold for production quality. It was like a trade off for me to get a dash and they can sell a few of these low demand dashes. I love the way it came out.

[JETSET700]

My car is registered and on the road for the road for the first time since 1992. It is a great feeling as this car has been the proverbial albatross around my neck for many years. Now the albatross Fu@%in flies. I am taking it to the goodguys Scottsdale in two weeks. There are still things to be done but mostly minor.

[waynieZ]

Congratulation's! Enjoy it you've earned it. It came out awesome. Glad you got it done before the next GoodGuys.

[Rybar]

Congrats, it's a sick Camaro. Post up some pics of the maiden voyage :thumbsup:

[JETSET700]

I had the car at Goodguys Scottsdale Saturday and had a great time. It's all aligned now and drives very good. I did'nt do the autocross as I'm not ready for that yet! No real problems to and from, it was a good day. One funny note for those who can relate. I scheduled to have my fr/rr glass installed by a recommended guy and it was'nt to far so I planned to drive it there with no fr/rr glass. That day turned out to be the coldest AZ morning of the year!
I did it anyways and it was like I was flying a Stearman over the North Pole.
I had the heater cranked on the freeway 26F* @70MPH. My wife was following in comfort in her pre-warmed up car. I thought I would share this with you.

Peter

[awr68]

Now that's a cold ride!! Been there done that....kinda, on my street bike during Christmas season in the NW. Burrr!!!

Congrats on getting it back on the road!! :cheers:

[JETSET700]

It's been too long since my last post. I've been real buisy but here are some pics of my car.

Forgive me Father for I have sinned. It has been almost 3 months since my last post. I will do my best by posting up some really cool pictures of my car.

Please Tell me what you think

-0- Well Peter son you have done a great job :thumbsup:

[Flash68]

That looks fantastic! I usually prefer the 67-68's bumperless but it looks great on yours.

:thumbsup:

[Spiffav8]

PERFECT!!

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[John510]

[waynieZ]

It looks SWEET!

[Spiffav8]

Glad to see you are out enjoying the car, with your girl, on what looks like a very nice evening in PHX.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[JETSET700]

Thanks Curtis, as you know iy has taken long enough. Most serious issues
have now been ironed out. I have autocrossed it a few times with no issues.
On another noteI had the upper and drivers side windshield moulding depart
the car at speed a few weeks back. Car has only minor scratch so I was fortunate.

Oh man I bet your heart jumped into over drive when the molding came off! Sorry to hear about the scratches. The first one always hurts the most! I'll have to try and meet up with you one of these days when I'm down there and have a look. Enjoy!

Your car does look good.

How do you like the race pak?

Yes, from the year they won 116 games. 2001 I believe.

Donovan, yea I remember meeting you! Two camaro's at one stands out.

[JETSET700]

Your car does look good.

How do you like the race pak?

I like the racepak but I did the dash carrier so the racepak would be recessed
for reduced glare a must per others who had used them before me. It sure reduces the amount of dash wiring.
