    Hello everyone,I haven’t posted anything in a long time.This is a camaro that was built out of a catalog,not one original piece,all repro body panels,moldings,bumpers etc.This car was a huge undertaking to do as every gap and body line needed attention.I did all the panel alignment,bodywork and painting.Enjoy[IMG]http://i580.photobucket.com/albums/ss241/jaysonm1969/IMG_0172.jpg[/IMG]

    How long do you usually have a job like that in your shop for?

    So is it your opinion that the repro body was worth the cost verses fixing up a rot box? Nice job btw.

    Thanks Ryan,the car came to the shop in metal crate with the doors and trunk lid installed.We put it on a rotisserie(sp?)and seam sealed and painted the bottom and firewall and the dash in summer of 08.The owner then took the car home and installed the suspension and powertrain and brought it back in Feb 09.We finished our part in mid June09,the owner did final assembly.

    PNLBTR this car was a lot of work,every gap needed attention,some had to be cut,some had to be welded and ground to the right width.Personally I would rather have done a rusty one,that way I could have done a better job of aligning the quarters trunk etc.It was a real challenge to make all the repro parts fit with each other.

    Looks friggin sweet Jayson. I still think a Dynacorn body is a better way to go ( for the customer )…beats paying for the metalwork like this poor fella did. ( He’s divorced now ).
