    When I first saw it I automatically thought of a 70s model Camaro then turns out its half Camaro chassis. Especially the hood around the headlights has Camaro written all over it. This has gotta be the coolest, sexiest, original car I've ever seen!! And with that 540 pumping out all that power not to mention a 300 shot of NOS to boot. I'm legit head over heals in love with his Beautiful work of art.
