    I found your videos trying to find feedback for Heidt's front subframe for a first gen Camaro. After first watching the front subframe episodes your attention to detail was so impressive I have gone back to the start to watch all the way through to get tips on my build ('68 Camaro Hardtop owned since 1981, drag raced in 80's and now rebuilding as a Pro-Touring). I plan to purchase either a Heidts or DSE front subframe assembly by Jan 10, 2025. I'd love your thoughts on why you purchased Heidts and wish you were complete so you could share how the car handles. Thank you in advance.

      I will let you know as soon as the snow is gone! It looks like a really nice setup. I have a lot of experience with tubing chassis in circle track racing and I really like what I see here. The only thing I question is they call out a lot of caster. like 5 degrees which seems like a lot but we will see how it goes. Over all I am very happy with their setup.

    • @LakeAndLodgeGarage
      @LakeAndLodgeGarage 4 дня назад

      @@jimmyjam813 yes. The inner pillar cover goes down and covers that part perfectly. It’s tough right now because I am assembling stuff that I did not take apart. And to make matters worse I seem to have parts for coupes and convertibles mixed in to the boxes that came with the car. It’s like a giant puzzle with a bunch of extra pieces some missing pieces the box picture spread all over RUclips. Thanks for watching. I truly appreciate the support.

    To be honest I liked seeing the red paint on the glass and frame. Most of the build I have seen brand new and cleaned parts. I liked seeing evidence of the cars former life. Ive watched this series from the very begining and it's been awesome watching this build come together. I just wish more people could have seen it come together maybe over time more people will find the series. Lookin good !

    My best friend is paying a shop to build a convertable 71 GTO similar to the quality of your car. It's a $300k build. Some famous interior guy is doing the interior for another $120k. It's amazing you have sorted this car out so nicely. Have you built several other cars ?

  • @andrewthomas1263
    @andrewthomas1263 11 дней назад

    Consider painting the metal ahead of the dash Flat Black. I think it will minimize glare spots on the lower glass during the day.. That orange paint is going to reflect the big ball in the sky.

    • @LakeAndLodgeGarage
      @LakeAndLodgeGarage 10 дней назад

      Yeah that would have been the smart play for sure knowing what I know now. It would take me a long time to get that dash pad off at this point. But maybe I could just paint that return that the seal sits on. That would not be too bad of a job. Thanks for your input!

      Yep, the pillar trim flares out to cover the gap, held down by a Phillips head screw. Also the top of the dash is often (usually?) black, so the black Butyl is not so noticeable.

    add baffles on the side of the ac condenser on my c3 corvette had a problem with ac not working well in traffic and sitting still i removed the front fan and sealed it up.

      @TheHsan22 11 дней назад

      On my 67 400 vert they just sit vertically against radiator mount and wrap around the side, behind the headlights. Each is held with two plastic toggles, up high through the radiator mount and fender mount. Each is also tucked to the side of the indicator lamp socket to stop it flapping around. Hadnt taken much notice of them before, so keen to see they are correct on mine.

The bottom one is call your lower baffle .#4 1967 and 1968 Firebird 400 cars also AC cars have them on to keep everything running cool #5 now in 1969 you're a 400 cars and your AC cars also had top and lower baffles funny thing is I have seen original 350 cars non-ac with the Lord baffle I have an original one at my house and it has the lower baffles I also have proven it before with other people having original 69 350 cars no AC and also having the lower baffle it looks like in 1969 they was just trying to get rid of them which 1969 lower baffle will not fit 67 Firebird or a 68 69 Firebird pretty special 1 year only
