I'm fairly tall at 6'4" and I can sit comfortably with a helmet - just touching the roof lining. I have about 2" clearance without the helmet. They were out of an XR8, just had them recovered in a soft leather, the back seats are the same. I tried some HSV seats but they were too big.

Cool. I knew you had the master cylinder but didn't realise the booster was the same. Thanks.
The seats looked the same as the ones in dads old xr8. I've been looking at hsv coulsons but wasn't sure if they'd fit & some people want huge $$ for them.

Anyway mate, you've gotta be stoked with how it's turned out. Your daughter will be riding in one of the coolest cars in the area

Sorry Nathan the booster is an 8in dual diagram standard unit.

I had the headrests removed and the padding adjusted to give it more of an old school look.

The photos look awesome Lyndsay, the spit & polish has worked a treat.

Yeah Pete it has come up sensational, over the moon! Ric from OCD detailing did an incredible job, and he really is OCD and a true car guy!

The Camaro is pretty much complete now, I’ve had the paint repaired were it was damaged during the rebuild, the wet sanded, cutback, buffed to within an inch of its life, finally had it Silica coated.





Interior is complete, spent a lot of time reworking the center console, seats are perfect height, very supportive and comfortable – everything works which is a bonus, VA AC is artic cold, very pleased with this system.





Fitted a new ReMaster Baer M/S which provides a much better pedal feel and response, better than the previous Wilwood unit

What a beautiful example of a 69 camaro. Quality work, well done.

Hope your health is on the up and up!

More or less. It's always a temporary state with my rig.. as we all know ;P ENJOY!!

Its been a while since updates.. I spun a bearing on the LS1 a while back, and have slowly been putting together an LS2 Stroker - 402CI. Here is a quick picture just after I fired it up. I'm hoping to get it to the tuner when I get back from work in the new year. Pretty bloody happy.

sad news about the LS1 but good news you are getting new motivation up front.

Great work Lyndsay - looks very tidy in there

[69SS]

Getting there lads, as always has cost a lot more than planned, all those small fitting, hoses etc.

Haven't posted for a while!

Its finally 99.9% finished - ( that's my disclaimer ). I Built a custom rear parcel shelf which came up really nice, wanted to integrate the booster seat, seats belts and speakers.

Hard to see the detail in this picture..



Had some billet valves covers machined up and anodized - these are nice pieces. Tuning went extremely well with torque for miles, comes on from 3k and is flat to the limiter. Pulls much harder now



Modified the centre console for the new head unit.



Post 200km cruise.



Compulsory rear end
