I'd like to see some more photos of the K&N Oldsmobile F-85. I read a blurb on their website, sounds like a real nice car.

Mine did too first year I was at SEMA. Subsequent years I brought new running shoes and never had tired feet sence.

Wish I was there this year :(

Good, glad I'm not the only one. Seriously thinking of going to bed at 9:00pm...in Vegas.

I have been going to be early as well. Went to bed at 10 last night but just woke up and now I can't go back to bed. Lots of cool stuff this year!

Wow Ring Bros actually built an understated classy Mustang.

http://www.hotrod.com/articles/last-call-supercharged-widebody-convertible-mustang-2016-sema-show-tensema16/

Of course Hot Rod can't be bothered to tell us what chassis they used underneath it.

I did the widebody thing myself on my '67 and its amazing how subtle it is, even other Mustang enthusiasts kind of scratch their head. I had to go back and take another look at the pictures because I saw the title said widebody and I didn't believe it but sure enough it is. Its too bad its so much work to do because it just looks right.

Not as amazing as the bare carbon body they brought last year though, I wonder if a car has been built from that body yet ?

I miss the Lat-G Ring Bros build threads though, they don't put much up on their site about the builds.

They list the specs at the bottom of the article.

oh thanks, I missed that.

Interesting - the DSE stuff works with stock rails, so they did a whole wide body thing but kept the main unibody I guess.

[XLexusTech]

Anyone have a video of that v12 camaro running ? Curious how it sounded

[transam]

There's a horrible quality video on Instagram of the v12ls running.

I wouldn't have survived the Bataan Death March.

At least Espionage and The Producer were both built utilizing that widebody. Obviously not a carbon fiber one, but same dimensions anyway. That bare carbon one was surreal in person. Was definitely sad missing sema after a five year stint......Oh and I'd put money on a rs chassis being under it

One of my friends who had never been before asked me how to prepare. I told him, 4 weeks prior, walk 36 holes of golf every day until SEMA.

2 of the 8 are not bad at all.

[preston]

I went through every photo thread at Hot Rod and So-Cal and I hadn't seen six of those cars. What else am I missing ?

Ironworks cars looked great, hope to see an update on them in the build threads.

Love to see a lot more details on some of those cars. I'm surprised the the K&N F85 Oldsmobile didn't make the list. If anyone knows where these cars have been featured post it up.

Preston --- The F-85 was on the Good Guys Hall of Fame Tour this year..... I love that build! It also sounds as wicked as it looks. Jesse Greening builds a great car.
