Don't worry -- that was the FIRST comment he made. "THESE ARE NOT PRODUCTION HEAD LIGHTS!"

dude....I'm putting in a siren now. Oh, and I talked to the wife...I'm getting more reds n' blues ...leds.

Yeah, the furry in my guess is using tape that didn't really seal, so when they put the paint on it bled under the tape. It most certainly looks furry in person... reminds me of plaster strips or paper mache (spelling?)

BTW, I "know" that tall, skinny guy that was there too from another forum. He told me he's talked to Scott also. I'd bet that was a GREAT event!!!

PS- He's a well-respected Vette guy working for a well-known "tuner" shop. But he said, regrading the pre-pro: "Its nice. It is really BIG. It would be fun to see one road racing. This has been a long time coming and its about time these things hit the streets."

I can't agree more!

I hope to be "ONE" of the first to be putting a final production version on a road track! That's where the "unibody" construction of this beast, along with other GM/Delphi suspension refinements, will SHINE!!!

Haha, only one person fits that description, and you're right -- Jason's not only well respected in the vette world, but well respected on our site regardless of him not owning an fbody. He brought the Katech LS7 Camaro to our show two years in a row and it was the show stopper whenever he started it up.

Jason's a good guy though, he hangs out with us on Woodward quite often.

I know, when Scott said that I thought it'd be perfect for him to print that smilie on a large posterboard and bring it with them to showings of the mules.

I visit here and CamaroZ28 often so I've always loved that smilie.

91t/a · 06-06-2008, 05:26 PM

nice to see some new pix to help drag us through this dreadful waiting stage!!!!

but y does this car seem so tall!!!?? any one else think it looks tall and bulky!!!!

ihc95 · 06-06-2008, 06:24 PM

^Thats odd, to me it looks low and wide.

meissen · 06-06-2008, 06:49 PM

It's actually quite the opposite. Wide and sleek.

WMCC GETGONE · 06-06-2008, 07:00 PM

It looks tall because of the side of the car being so tall and the windows/roof are much shorter in comparison. Thank the wonderful government for side impact standards that require such tall sides to pass crash tests.

It looks 'furry' because it's essentially Sears Weather Beater paint -- put on with a roller -- so that it looks like a faux finished wall.........

Shunt keeps trying to crawl out of the trunk thru the pass-thru......

subtle...Hahaha,

Someone sdd that one to the 'facts' thread, will you?

Be nice to shunt while you've got him in captivity, Scott. I'm sure he'd love to lay about in that awfully roomy and comfortable interior.

Camaro Lives On · 06-06-2008, 10:32 PM

Hey Scott, where have you been hiding out at?? Youve been MIA for a little while.

Sorry, off topic, my bad
