Nelson Supercar 003 Detailed photos

[TOM NELSON]

I decided to take Randys 84 N.S.C.003 to a studio to get some good photos .A quick overview of the car for those of you who haven't seen it yet.Its a nice clean stock looking 84 with rims from the outside.We call the car The wolf in sheeps clothing.The car has one of our 427 Twin Turbos that made 1750 hp on the dyno 1100 on 91 octane,A modified 4l85e with electronic transbrake 4 speed auto trans,Currie 9 inch with 35 spline axles,The entire chassis was reinforced with a custom roll cage and custom subframe connectors,Mark at bent put rear frame rails in it and tubs to accomidate 345/35/18 bf drag radials,We injection molded the factory rear panels 3 inchs wider so the panels look stock in the interior,It has a ricks stainless gas tank with twin aeromotive a1000's in the tank,Full tubular front end with rack and pinion steering,Custom Ron Davis radiator and air to air intercooler.It's the first car we've built with our new billet collectors,turbo transistions,and symetrical billet turbos.I really love how these photos came out.

That rear shot is money. I can't wait til the third gens come into their own. These cars look so good when done right. They are capable of so much performance wise once you do something about their anemic engines.

Here's some shots of the engine bay.There's actually no photo shopping in any of these photos.The engine is fully wired and plumbed all the injectors and sensors are on the inside of the manifold along with the wiring.Let me know what you think Thanks Tom Nelson

[Swain]

[Joel145]

Love the car! :thumbsup: A real sleeper. Anyone who didn't know any better could pull up to this car at a stop light and be embarrased real quick.

Very nice!

That Camaro needs a killer feature.. one of many pages.. very very nice work!

It's nice to see a third gen getting the love.

[enzo]

Randy - you are stoked amigo

Tom - that thing looks killer man, nice work.

[Karps TA]

Just an amazing 3rd gen. By far the best one out there, that I've ever seen.

[TOM NELSON]

Here's some more shots thanks for all the killer posts it makes me pumped to do more.

[Karps TA]

Any interior pics? I'm interested in seeing those widened rear panels.

[98ssnova]

This has to be the cleanest Third gen out there. Very nice work Sir as always

Very nice work Tom!! I love it!! :hail:

[XcYZ]

Amazing car, Tom and Randy. :cheers:

This car has actually changed my mind...I was thinking about selling my 91' for a few years now, then I see this in the making and I realize.... I have to keep it and finish it how I imagined in the first place. I had a small photo shoot done back in the late 90's with Chevy High Performance magazine, they wanted to do a feature shoot on it once the engine was done, never pursued it though.... I may look into it now, even though a car like this makes mine look blah...:captain:

Thanks for the inspiration guys! You built a VERY KICK A$$ thirdgen !

:cool: I love third gens


Do the wastegates just dump into the engine bay or is there a pipe missing?

[RedRyder]

You guys are jerks. Here I was just drinking my lemonade when I stumbled across these pics. Do you know what lemonade does to a laptop???

Seriously though, that car is sweet in ways I can't even begin to explain. 1700 hp.....who does that??

Very bad ass car and I hope you put some videos up here.

[groovyjay]

That 3rd gen is in a league of its own by a long mile. The craftsmanship is next to none! :hail:

[wiedemab]

I said this on one of the other threads about this care, but I'll say it again.

That engine bay is pure SEX.

I love it, the execution in all areas is amazing! Nice work to all who were involved.

Yea the pipes are not in the picture they dump back into the exhaust

That was our goal was to revive the 3rd gens .My first car ever was a 3rd gen i had a ton of fun in that thing so we wanted to build a 3rd gen that could compete with supercars.

Unfortunetely i don't have any good interior shots.The car has a stock interior with the camaro camaro camaro seats which i trying to twist randy the owners arm to get rid of.But he loves it

[Ummgawa]

Tom, you have created Art. Just incredible, man, thumbs way up.

[Stuart Adams]

Very cool car.

Compete with supercars? You build supercars...You are competing with yourself.

Tom, what car will compete or challenge this car? You guys did one hell of a job!

[syborg tt]

When you think of Hi End Car & there Builders with outrageous budgets you think of:

Rad Rides
Foose
Johnsonon Hot Rod Shop
Alloway
Just to name a few.

Well I think there is a new Guy in town that has put together an incredible team of shops to turn out the next level of Super Cars

Tom, Mark and the rest of the crew you guy's have out down yourself on this project.

Kudo's to you guy's and please do us all a favor and bring a couple pf your supercars to GG Columbus so we can all see them in person.

:hail: :thumbsup:

[tony byram]

Man that things flat wicked looking, at first glance looks like any other third gen Camaro,but the more you look,the stance the wheels and tires.... factory custom? Love it VERY tastefully done. Hard to pull off that look. I think that this car does just that! What a great job:thumbsup:

[89 RS]

Tom and Randy, you guys have built the baddest third-gen I've ever seen! I hope to see Randy's Camaro in person some day. I said it before and I'll say it again, that build shows the potential of a third-gen...unreal. Definitely inspiration for my third-gen. Excellent build. :hail:

[Namtra]

Nicely done. Finally some photos that show off the level of work NRE provides!!!:D

[javablack]

very nice ride:thumbsup:

[Mover]

I'll give that one a thumbs up :thumbsup: great job!

[srh3trinity]

Best third gen ever IMHO and it also ranks as one of the best Camaros ever. I have my eye on a third gen. Just waiting to buy a house. This car renewed my interest, my first two cars were third gens and I miss them both.

[-Freak-]

Any interior shots? Amazingly well done!

[Rybar]

Like I said before, must be the nicest 3rd gen on the planet. :yes:

Rupp, make sure you guys book this car for a cover and full feature. Wont find a nicer 3rd gen thats for sure. :thumbsup:

[TreySmith]

The only thing I don't like is the headers.. They don't go along with the clean theme of the car and look like they were put on last minute..

Other than that the car looks great. :thumbsup:

[Scorpner]

Very nice! :thumbsup:

dude you are kidding right?

[g356gear]

dude you are kidding right?

Maybe he says this because they do have a more raw steel appearance than all the other metals in the engine bay. I think they look great personally, but if they were polished or chrome ceramic coated it might look more balanced to him.

I am just weird like that. :lol:
