Jimmy Sak Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 Car finally made it on a lift and the destruction has begun. 2012 SS CSM #84 w/all options except for the kicker upgrade. Ill keep the pics coming...Im still undecided on the widebody, but it may well be put on after the bash. Time will tell. Jim Edit- Ordered the widebody conversion for it on Friday. Went with the black rims. :happy feet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agmo Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 Do you know the exact date when yours was started. I kept looking in the background for ours setting on a lift. No luck. They should look just alike until our SS is sent to the paint shop. Keep posting pictures as will I. I have been told to expect a 120 day build. Ours was started about the fiest week of Nov.

A120 day build? Lord I sure hope it doesn't take that long. My 08 was shipped late January 2009 and was completed in time for the 427 race that year. (February 26, 2009) Was actually told first of last month that they were ready for my 2013 as soon as I could get it out there. ( it was shipped to SAI mid December) In the salesman's own words "we are moving these cars in and out at a really quick clip right now" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agmo Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 08SS; they are telling me up 120 days but probably will not take that long. They just want to be conservative on telling you it will be ready by a certain date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Sak Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 How long did your car sit out there before it went into production? About 3 weeks, but the order was made about 5 months ago so many of the parts I ASSUME were already around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Sak Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 I'm going with the Matte Black Good question! I went with the normal, but I am leaning heavily towards the widebody conversion. Not sure if there was a black finish for those rims yet or not?

Jimmy Sak Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Thanks for all the comments! Needless to say the more I hear from all of you, the more excited I get for this to be finished!! I more than likely will be flying out for a day to look at the WB conversion in person so I can make that call on my car. Just need to find the time......

CSX4833 Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 I've got #77 delivered May of 2012-was ordered 12/18/11. She was in the speed shop for a suspension upgrade though.
