  • We've been waiting for quite a while to shoot this one. My friend Sean Smith did the design work, Gabes did the interior and it was built by Stones Metal Shop and its a serious badass. 600 whp from an n/a LSX with stunning fab work and all the right sounds.
    Sit back and enjoy the ride...

    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.

  • @scarbourgeoisie
    @scarbourgeoisie 4 роки тому +9

    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

    I'm gonna say it . Cars perfect . If anything is perfect anyway . Very tasteful for a radical car , these are some of my favorite types . Like the opposite of a F&F gaudy car . Class .
