Dragracer Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 The front shocks look great John, can't wait to see the back of this baby done-up!
Plasticfanatic Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 Another masterpiece on the works, it already looks fantastic!
eviltwincustoms Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 Man I like this Camaro Funny Car! I have never really been much of a flopper kind of guy but this combines two of my favorite subjects. The 69 camaro and drag racing.... I have been trying to hold myself back from buying a 1/16 funny car to start as a project... John you are making this really hard for me here.
Mooneyzs Posted May 11, 2012 Posted May 11, 2012 John... awesome work on the front shocks, They look killer. You are doing one heck of a job on this build so far. Bart.... Just buy a 1/16th scale funny car already.... you will love it.
vintagedragfan Posted May 11, 2012 Posted May 11, 2012 the stance is ferfect John, beautiful progress!!!
John Teresi Posted May 12, 2012 Author Posted May 12, 2012 Hello......thank you all for the kind comments........"Goat Guy" AKA: Dave Ryberg,thank you so much for you reference pictures of the 1:1 USA1 Camaro........they have been a great help......I modified the rear axle......made some wheelie bars .......and made a water and fuel tank, and I am using new " ProTech" gas caps.......I don`t know if this car used rear shocks or struts?......Dave is going to ask Bruce larson?......I will make the the shocks or struts and fuel and water brackets tomorrow......thanks for looking.
kitswapper Posted May 12, 2012 Posted May 12, 2012 Here's some more shots that might help you,even though there are some modern safety items on the car to run at nostalgia shows. Great build by the way..
