Well to make a long story short The one off one peice front on Hammerhead got boogered up while loading it one the trailer for a show.(It popped out of gear!)It was fixable but I wanted to change it anyways.I whent through a few different ideas but landed on one.Tell me what you think.
This is what it looks like now!(A little worse for wear!)
A change for Hammerhead! Opinions?

That really looks AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Go for it !
the flares, And the higher hooe look sweet !!!
I have already started makin cuts and should start glassin today.
I'll try to take some pix as I go!
I agree- looks damn cool. Keep us informed, then I can bring you my camaro to glass up. lol.
Nice concept.I would like to see both of your cars completed as I'm sure both of you would.Sometimes the best customs come from a boo or 2.The car will look great as pictured.
I think it will be a great "look". Keep us posted with pictures as the car developes.
Last words in fatal accidents for 49 of 50 states are "Oh Sh*t!" Final words in Wisconsin are "Hold my beer, I'm gonna try somethin'..."
I'm gonna try to get the whole project on film and put it on Jacks 77 and C-3 site.(they asked me if I would)It's proven to be a tough one so far!!

I have to drop the deck height @5" at the front!It was raised @2" for the last front.
Looks like you are headed in the right direction.
I think the new look will be great!

This is another thought to help fight the air issue.
I made some progress today!
Wow! great progress. Is that all fiberglass?? I would like to talk to you about how you made those parts, even if we have to do it om personal e-mail. Take a look at my camaro. How hard do you think it would be to do the body on it? Let me know. You cranked this out pretty quick- and it matches your drawing perfectly. Nice job.

Yup! All glass!(There will be some filler of course)I did alot of cuttin and bending with some fiberglass panels.I keep my eyes open for fiberglass panels,and peices that I can use for mods.I built the last one by shaping foam.(Foam sheets stacked and glued)Then coated it in glass like a surfboard.Foam is easy to shape and the sky is the limit!My E-mail adress is showme71vette@yahoo.com
Where do I find pics of your camaro?
This was the latest version that I came up with.Made a few changes.Might add louvers.
Louvers over the snorkel in the opposite direction of the ones over the air cleaner might be cool and balance it out. Maybe even make the grill out of them. Nice job.
It just keeps geting better.Is that dual scoops on the side?
I like the hood louvers. Better watch out you dont suck up any small kids or animals in that hole in the front. Do you just leave the foam underneath, or do you make your glass piece into a mold, and do reverse panels? Me and John Silva started fiberglassing my Camaro, then he passed away, and it still sits in the same condition.. I guess I need to dig it out and get motivated.
Yes! I'm gonna open up the sides on it too!I have several things on the drawing board for that.The tail will get some changes too.
