Re: 1967 camaro A/S project
That was an awesome weekend for sure , small world isn't it . I remember there was 198 cars in that class that weekend, don't see that anymore hardly ever . Super Chevys aren't as big as they used to be.

Re: 1967 camaro A/S project
Got all the brakes on, steering, rear end bolted in, front spoiler, and rear shocks.Was hoping my rear wheels would have came in but, it sounds like a couple more weeks. Waiting on the bead lock rings.
This weekend hope to get the front shocks on, motor mounts in, and some brake lines on. |

Re: 1967 camaro A/S project
Where did you get that carbon fiber roll bar padding? :p Seriously, car looks fantastic! :)
|
Re: 1967 camaro A/S project
Jerry Bickel race cars here in town sells it! It's cool stuff !
Got some more done today got it rolling, my new lugnuts came in ,rear end all buttoned up, all front brake lines are on, steering wheel on , and all interior back in and done now , motor mounts in, and last but not least my new rear wheels lol just kidding, but I was thinking about seeing how these hook lol!! |
Re: 1967 camaro A/S project
I like the look of the carbon fiber roll bar protector bit I'm not sure if it meets the rule book specifications for padding. It reads: Adequate padding must have minimum1/4-inch compression or meet SFI Spec 45.1. I don't see how carbon fiber can be used as a padding as it doesn't compress. The Bickle site doesn't say this protector meets the SFI spec. I can see using it on the side bar to protect from scratches, but not in the head area as it offers no protection. Do you plan to use a different padding for the head area? Am I missing something here?

Re: 1967 camaro A/S project
Thanks Tim. After looking closer I see your 45.1 in the head area. Good luck this season and I'm enjoying following your build. Regards, Danny

Re: 1967 camaro A/S project
Nice Build. Question, are you using stock rubber bushings in your front upper control arms?
I have solid bushings in my Impala, used solids in bottom too. Am I too "old school" Will Lamprecht 1965 Impala I/SA in progress. |

Re: 1967 camaro A/S project
I am feeling a lot better still be awhile before I can turn some wrenches , but my new wheels came in for the rear so I had to talk my buddy Garret into mounting them and my Dad to put them on this weekend (thanks guys)I had to see them on the car!
I also have to say Sander engineering makes an awesome product they even polished the inside of the wheels and anodized the centers and Beadlock rings and machined them just like I asked and they look awesome! The car is really turning out nice and I can't wait to set the motor in it and get it running! |

Tim, I see the shifter is gone now...you changing it over to a "3 on the tree"?? Ha Ha! Looks very nice. I really want to redo my spring perch / U-bolt setup after seeing yours...

Re: 1967 camaro A/S project
I like that license plate too :)
Yeh Paul that's the new air shifter they are pretty neat lol . I'm waiting till I get the trans in to cut the hole , because it's new carpet. The rear perches are the way to go for sure no more bending plates when this thing 60 foots. 1.19 on the rear tires lol j/k lol! |

Congrats and thanks for letting us see it. Chris |
