Re: For your viewing pleasure
Shifty, thats you?
I'd imagined you, smaller.68 short step-My great-grandmother's (still rockin' at 89) first name is Texas actually. Confused the hell out of me when I was real little, and got a telephone call asking to speak to Texas.

Re: For your viewing pleasure
Lou,
Glad to see you aboard here.. When I came in this thread I was thinking someone might be choping down the bulky center section on the front crossmember. Something I am thinking about doing for my 63 drag truck. I figure that center section has got to weigh 100lbs more than a 2x4 .120" piece with some 1/4" plate and bracing to mount the lower control arms. Any reason your keeping that front piece and not putting a different one in? Next question I had for you was the severe angle on the shocks. 10* won't really skew the spring rat or shock dapening, but from what I understand, once you get past 10* it starts changing the rates very quickly. 30* is a pretty steep angle. Herb Adams goes in to it pretty well in his book Chasis engineering. I'll try to find it as I think he does testing at different angles and shows you the changes. Another question would be in regards to the rear. Any reason you went with a 4-bar over a 3-link or a truck arm rear set up (60-72)? They tend not to bind as much as a 4-bar or 4-link. I hope you don't mind me sharing a few pics of my Camaro with you. This is my 3-link set up.

Re: For your viewing pleasure
Guys sorry that I have not posted anything. I was in Vegas last weekend at Mopars at the strip. A bunch of mopars the show was great. Anyway when I got home look at what was waiting for me. That Camaro looks great I want to see more pictures of it. I really like the way you installed the 3-Link.
The Caprice in the back round is my 4 door hardtop. I plan on putting an LS Engine in it with a Pro Charger. I want to build a nice driver out of it. That Camaro looks great I want to see more pictures of it. I really like the way you installed the 3-Link.  I need to make my own headers for the truck. They look pretty crazy.   I'm going to run 2.5 exhaust on the truck. I want to get it done before I put the body on. This way all I have to do is cut the floor up.    I'm going to run those Hushpower mufflers I heard that they were pretty good.

Re: For your viewing pleasure

Since my tivo isn't getting any Lou love anymore, guess i'll have to let my 67-72chevytrucks.com subscriptions get the love. welcome to the boards man and awesome looking build |

Re: For your viewing pleasure
That header looks scary. Nice looking work your doing Lou. I agree with the pics of the Camaro, we need to see more. There are a lot of Camaro owners on this site to, why not start a thread on the build of it.
