  • Today we tell the story of a legend. A 1967 Chevrolet Camaro known as 'Vengeance'. Conceived by Atlanta's own artistic mastermind, MR. TOTEM. This satin black G-Machine isn’t just a car, it’s a statement, and one of the pioneers that defined the entire pro-touring scene of the early 2000’s. With its aggressive stance and flawless design, 'Vengeance' has inspired an entire generation of car builders. But MR. TOTEM isn’t just an automotive visionary-he’s a world-renowned artist whose groundbreaking style has been sought after by collectors across the globe.
    ‘Vengeance’ is more than just a car and TOTEM is far greater than an artist-together they are the fusion of art, muscle, and automotive history. And on this, the premier episode of The House of Muscle presented by PEAK, we tell the story of how Mr. Totem created a legend.

    The car is awesome, but can we talk about Mike for a minute? I have been watching car and hotrod shows for 30 years. I have never seen someone who can take other peoples cars and convey them to an audience like Mike. He has always found a way to make you feel the passion of the car and owner. Thank you Mike for the great cars and possibly the best experience possible.

Same thing with big hood scoops like on 3rd gen camaros when they put 4 inch cowl hood on and you open the hood its a stock 305 or 350.. People are getting 5-700+ horsepower under the stock hoods and it doesn't look like the guy who shoves a sock in his pants!

      IMSA class is what I see most represented..
      (Zakspeed) Mustang/Capri, .. the wide body.. duct work.. actually functional Aero...
      But.. now to this... Ultra Resto Mod...
      With latest trend...
      I hope they didn't use an real 1st Gen F Body.. sheet metal...
      Since it's not necessary...
      AMD etc.. Classic Industries, sells a New continuation 69 Camaro chassis...
      New Vin and all..
      The original Shape, is why anyone even likes these.. the attempt too modify it so far beyond its design characteristics...
      Plus this era Trans Am...
