67 Chevelle drag car, 496ci big block chevy. chromemoly cage built last winter.

67 Camaro, just a restro-cruiser car. 350/ 700r4. air conditioning, nice stereo. highway car

My two camaros. The red one,91, is probably the next car to undergo the knife, full tube chassis for it.

project S10, started with a 305 in highschool, then got a 350, now its getting a 383.

thanks guys. i don't know if people get tired of looking at fabrication pics or not. i am a picture taker, i have a lot of pics of the build so far.

riceslayer, i just spent a hour looking through your engine bay thread, you did a good job. i'm sure your glad you decided to fill all them holes. its been awhile since we filled and smoothed ours, i forgot how many holes were there and how horrible it looked before. your motor is very nice looking, love the black against the white.

thanks alot, a compliment like that coming from a pro like yourself means alot. again, thanks.

I wouldn't say i'm a pro, well not yet at least. i haven't built enough cars yet to be a pro thats what my dad would tell me, but thats a nice compliment. it just takes practice doing this stuff, thats how you get better. if you just think about what your doing and take your time, anything really isn't that difficult.

man, you guys have some awesome cars

 

[95BlueStallion]

Glad the thread is opened back up. You seem like a good guy, and you should be proud of the awesome work you are doing! More pics!

 

[customfabwork]

Wow man, you do some awesome work! How'd you learn to do all of it?

 

[customfabwork]

I have grown up with cars, my dad has taught me a lot. then i went to school a couple years ago for collision repair and all that. also took a high performance fab class, that taught me a lot about roll cages, tube bending, metal working, welding well just more practice welding. my dad is a professional welder so i have learned most of my welding skills from him. I sometimes think i could do some of this work in my sleep. i also have a wild imagination, i think about cars and how to make them better constantly.

well i got took some updated pics today. i will upload them in a few

 

[customfabwork]

here are the pics of how we tied the front and rear subframes together

Here are just some pics of the cage

Hi guys! I'm the owner of the gt and the replys from everyone have been great!
The feedback from everyone motivates us to keep going. Customfabwork and I have been working on this project for quite some time and we feel like the progress is paying off! So keep the comments coming!:SNSign:

 

[1991notchbackLX]

damn! you guys could probably make that thing a rocket drag car and not twist that chassis with how overengineered the cage is!! i've posted in here like 10 times already but i love this thread haha

keep it going!

 

[customfabwork]

notchback you can post as much as you want. the more comments, the more it inspires me.

finally, sickgt, is on here. if you guys have questions about the car you can ask him or i.

hope you guys like the pics

Looks like every seam on the chassis got welded; with the subframes and cage that thing is STIFF!

That would be the goal

Jesus, amazing work. Seems like the car is going to weigh about 500 pounds more just in welding wire!! Keep up the good work! What color is the interior? Black?
