  • @scarbourgeoisie

    Early 2nd gen Camaros deserve more love because this style is so under appreciated. The execution of the mods on this car are nothing short of spectacular. Love how the exhaust exits through the valence below the rear bumper a la first gen Mustangs. Makes you kinda of wish that stylists at GM Design Staff had "borrowed" it.

    • @AutotopiaLA

  • @OhItsPrimetime

    It's the little things on this car that sets it apart. Flush finishes on the windshield, bumpers, and even the engine bay color combination. I love that "European" twist on American muscle. That interior is on a different level than any other car I ever seen.

    Man the attention to detail and amount of man hours that went into that build are insane. It's a nice touch how they color matched the intake and exhaust piping and in Cerakote! That alone with all the matching engine bolt-ons are a big touch, yet a shit ton of extra work most builder's skipover.
