1957 Camaro


I really wish I had better pictures of this. I recently found this pictures cleaning up my hard drive - they were saved to my computer in 2006 before I disappeared from blogging, and never got posted. If fact, trying to find better pictures led me to a gold mine, the spoils of which I'll be posting in the next few days.

Back to the fug at hand, this beaut seems to be a homemade attempt at turning a Camaro into a '57 Chevy. Because, you know - this concept has worked perfectly so many times before. Also, it appears to be made entirely of clay.

I suppose they share sharply creased edges, but the Chevrolet Astro and Lamborghini Murceilago designs do not meld well. This vans all gutted out inside for drag racing, and actually has the internals to back it up. So luckily it won't be seen long enough to let it's looks sink in.

Over the next few days I hope to bombard you with the some fugly kit kar kreations. I stumbled upon a site which has them in spades - and also managed to clear up some questions pondered in past posts (with better pics to boot). Well - not so much cleared up questions, but at least we can now point fingers at those responsible.
