The engine is a 441 LS7 from Texas Speed and the I believe the cage is Chassisworks. I'm sure Paul can give you guys more detail, but I work 3rd shift and figured I'd fill the other night owls and left coasters in with what I know.

Very nice Paul. Top notch build. So you replaced 67 dash with 69?
Thanks Jay! Yes the 67 dash was all rusted out so we decided to just replace it with a 69 dash. We first saw it on Stielows car and decided to go ahead and do it on this build. Really turned out cool with the DSE Dash insert.
nice work
Thanks Vince!

Thanks Chris! Yes I don't know who thought that they were doing someone a favor doing that work but they shouldn't be working on cars! lol And the sad thing is that those where NOS GM qtrs that someone destroyed...
Looks Killer Great work..
Thanks Jay!

:cheers:
Thanks Ron! Texas Speed built the engine. Great service and a pretty decent turn around time.The cage is a chassisworks deal that we modified and added a few things. It was a nice starting point and also saved some time. I will post a few more picture of it coming through the dash for you.
Top Notch work as always guys,I am pretty sure that will be a happy customer.:trophy-1302:
Thanks Jeff! The customer is flying in from Cali tomorrow to hangout and check out the car for the weekend. He hasn't seen it in person since the day he dropped if off. Really looking forward to seeing what he thinks of it!
Sweet Camaro Paul!! You have been busy at your shop!!
Thanks Rick! Yes our team has been crazy busy around the shop. It is never a dull moment that is for sure. I have a great group of guys that really have a great passion for these cars. We are very lucky to be able to have the privilege of building some really cool cars for people.
Well that doesn't suck! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
How long have you all been working on this car?
Thanks Curtis! It did suck for sure. I felt very bad for my customer as he bought it from a guy he knew who told him it was in final prime and just needed to be blocked out and painted. We had the car up on the hoist looking and started finding more and more messed up spots..it was time to head to the blast to uncover some sins!:superhack:
We have had this car for a little over a year. Working on and off with other work flow in the. It has come a LONG ways. We are about 2-3 weeks away from paint. We just final primed it yesterday.
Great job! Really excited to see how it comes out. Curious about the dash also.
Thanks! The install was not bad at all. It needed to have a complete dash installed anyways. So it made the decision that much easier.
The engine is a 441 LS7 from Texas Speed and the I believe the cage is Chassisworks. I'm sure Paul can give you guys more detail, but I work 3rd shift and figured I'd fill the other night owls and left coasters in with what I know.
Thanks Jason! I need you to be my HR guy. lol Thanks for the help last night finishing up somethings on the engine.:thumbsup:

Really impressive work. Neat trick with the dash, going to be a great visit for the customer to see the car done right. Was curious about the hood hinges, are they painted or what? Never seen hinges in yellow before. Has the customer decided on the color scheme yet? This is a great build to follow.

I believe that is yellow tape used to protect the finish on the hood hinges.

The 69 Camaro dash swap is something so simple but is going to look so much better.

I've kicked myself many times now for not thinking about swapping the 69 Camaro dash into my Nova. Lots more dash panel options going that route.

Thanks for all of the positive feedback guys, Today all of the hard work of bringing this car back from the dead has become even more rewording. Our customer made his trip into the shop today from California after not seeing the car in person since the day he dropped it off. He was extremely happy with how the car looked and couldn't believe that it was the same car that he had dropped off a short time ago. We spend a part of the afternoon looking at different spray outs trying to nail down a color. A few are up in the air. I will update back once we have an official pick.
Tomorrow we head over to Gingerman for the Motorstate Challenge. I have lined up some passenger seat time for him with Stielow around the track. Looking forward to what he thinks after he gets out of the car riding with a few laps with Mark..:thumbsup:
More updates to come soon.. here are a few pictures I took today.
Paul (Our customer)Checking out the feel of the interior layout for the first time.

After getting a few rides in with Mark Stielow And Ray Thompson over the weekend I think its safe to say he has the bug...
So we decided to head back to the shop Saturday night and get a test runs in around the shop parking lot...lol

Sorry guys we have just been so busy at the shop I keep telling myself that im going to take a few minutes and through some stuff up, but it seems to never happen. I also need to make a few other build threads or just one big one of some other really cool projects happening in the shop.
We are in the final push on the 67' Just trying to get everything finalized and fabbed up before we blow it apart for paint We have made a few changes in some areas but getting very close. The goal is to have the shell done and ready for assembly before we leave for SEMA. I better get back to work.....
Finished up all of the brake lines. Will be nice to have a lot of this pre fab done so when it comes time to assemble it should go together pretty nice.

Also we did a slight radiator support mod for the C&R radiator.

Punched and flared both halves and welded all of the joints together so that it would look the same front and back and have that stamped look.

Also went around the perimeter of the opening with some 1/8x1/2 to strengthen the opening.

We have also done a ton of work to the inner fenders/fenders to get them to fit 275/35/18 BFG Rivals and still be able to run the car low without rubbing under all conditions. I will add up a few more photos of what we did. The inner fender still comes down the side of the fender and locks into the rolled lip along with a few of the factory bolt holes. Just in case the tire does rub the outer fender it will still have something to protect it from damaging the outside of the fender.

I will have some more updates soon on this car along with all of the other projects in the works at the shop.
Looking good Paul. :thumbsup:
Maybe just start a project thread that represents the shop and post random projects updates as time allows? Being less formal should take less energy and make it quicker to post updates.
A little is better than nothing. :D

Great stuff Paul ! Yes, maybe you guys could do like Ironworks and just post up current projects every so often. All the stock subframe guys are drooling to find out more detail on the fender mods to fit the 275s up front. Also, that radiator is exactly the one I am looking at. Any more info. on the core support changes is also greatly appreciated. Hope you got your fenders shipped out of Phoenix OK.

Thanks everyone for all of the positive comments! We very much appreciate all of them.
Here are a few more pictures of some of the last few projects before we spray the car. We are shooting for next friday to have it in the booth and start spraying color. I will keep updated once it goes in.
The customer has went back to his first color choice after being reminded of it seeing the latest pictures of Mark Stielows car.

A few pictures of the air intake tube that we built. We had to stretch the intake to tube to 4 1/4" at the throttle body to fit the larger Nick Williams TB.

We also decided that it wouldn't be a bad idea to do some sort of heat extractors to get some of the heat out from under the hood during hard track use.

They are using U-pol Raptor. Paul sprayed my 68 Camaro with Raptor a few years ago. IMO Raptor has a nicer finished look than other bed liners I've seen. I'm not sure if they are doing any type of custom mix or if it's straight out of the can though.

I agree it goes on flatter and has a slight gloss to it.

Brandon, The Ultimate headers are awesome, You cannot beat them for the price. I will call and talk with Jim tomorrow and see what he thinks about the Chevy II fitment and get back with you. If they will work, I will get you a good price on them.

i think the center outlet headers would work. we have this model on our chevy two and it interfered with the frame mounts to the firewall, so we put them on a mill and angle milled the flanges away from the firewall, which got them closer to the 4l80e and starter. but the ground clearance is unbeatable.

A few updates on the car, We have been very busy around the shop with other projects and the addition going on the shop but still have been making good progress on the car.
We are hitting it hard this week and shooting to have it to the interior shop first part of the week.

Thanks everyone! We very much appreciate all of the positive comments about the car. We are very excited to get it out this summer and see the customer enjoy it at some shows and events.
We are sending it to the interior shop next week and hope to have most of the car assembled here in the next few months.
Not sure if we are going to make cobo with it or not. We have been really busy at the shop with construction and other builds we have gotten a little behind. We will see though. Will be sitting pretty good by spring to start shaking it down.
Jeff, Been making some progress on my new build. Not as much as I would hope but is coming along. All of the customer cars have had me pretty busy and not to much free time to dedicate to it. I need to make a build thread of it and post some updates here soon.
A few more pictures from the last few days. We got the doors on and have been doing some assembly work getting it ready to go to the interior shop.

Love this build don't want to call it mild, but when you start looking at rs shop and some of the others I guess it might fall into that category. But for us everyday guys it's the kind of quality and craftsmanship we would all some day hope are cars could be amazing work guys. Plus goes to show you don't have to do so many body mods to make the car timeless.

Front end is just about finished being sanded and buffed. We will be installing that this week.
Here are a few quick pictures I have off of my phone. Ill get some more posted up later this week!

I really like the simple - no nonsense - approach to this car. Clean - functional - very nice - but you know there's not a bunch of wasted super fancy upholstery trying to make a useless "show car" out of it. One look in the trunk tells me they expect to actually put stuff in there and not get too worried about messing it up. I like it!

It's funny that is exactly what I was thinking when I saw these pictures. I had sent JCG Chris a few pics of a rear seat delete and he was saying that they were doing more and more simple work. Just like we see here at Dutchboys.
Looks like the less is more theory is going to be next trend with pro-touring cars and here is a perfect example.

We seem to float between cars that are more show/performance and street fighter/performance. Personally I would think that this car is a great example of balancing the two.

What is the under coating material you guys use on the bottom of this car. It looks lot smoother then the stuff we have found out here.
Car looks nice.

Very nice detail on the fender lip trim. That is a pretty clean version that others can learn from. Us poor 67 owners really have trouble squeezing in a 10-inch wheel/tire combo!

That's strange. It works from my phone and my laptop. Wish I could figure out how to embed the video directly on the forum.
