\"Widebody<\/a><\/p>\n

When completed this will be one really unique 1969 Camaro. Under the hood will be GM’s supercharged LS9 crate engine and a custom built Viper based T-56 transmission. The frame will consist of an Art Morrison subframe and a custom built rear frame that will be built to handle 1,000 horsepower. A Detroit Speed & Engineering Quadralink rear end will be used to hold the power to the ground. The body will be widened five inches (2.5″ on each side) to accommodate Forgeline 18×10 up front, 19×14 in the rear and six piston Baer brakes all around. As far as I can tell I think this will be the first full widebody 1st Generation Camaro ever. The exhaust will be sent through the frame and out the sides before the rear tires.<\/p>\n
