Long Forgotten Pro Street Camaro Gets a New Lease On Life In Panama

Mark Gearhart — Wed, 27 Oct 2010 09:37:45 +0000

Back in May you may remember we came across a snapshot of a Pro Street style Camaro just laying unattended to down in Panama. While it peaked our interest quite a bit, it’s location, current state and the odds of its survival led us to believe the Camaro had just seen better days, and likely wouldn’t be moving under its own power anytime soon. In other words, we thought it was a goner. Well, a short time after that all the forums blew up with everyone on the hunt for more info on the car. To our surprise, after a few months of rumors and ideas circled around the car, we got word that the car was indeed getting a second chance to make not another, but its first pass down the 1/4 mile.

Camaro Reventon

Rob Einaudi — Mon, 25 Oct 2010 19:06:39 +0000

It takes a lot to shock me after working at CarDomain for four years, but this 1994 Camaro on eBay blew me away. Sadly the pics aren’t too big or too great, but I’ve got tons more after the jump!

eBay auction text:

This incredible Rev Angel 300HP V-8 Exotic Replica Supercar was meticulously designed and handcrafted (light strong metal, not heavy fiberglass!) to resemble million dollar exotic supercars, without the costs, maintenance, repairs, insurance, etc.!!! It has a V-8 (300 HP- with the included intake plenum similar to the one pictured) LT-1 Chevy Engine with only 36,000 original miles which was replaced 95 miles ago!!! Also replaced recently (within the year) was the alternator, starter, and battery. It has a current safety inspection and emissions sticker and the title is free and clear.

This car will peal and smoke the tires from a stand still. It will virtually beat any tuner car, fiero replica, older corvette’s or so called muscle cars. The rear wheel track has been widened by 4 inches with wheel spacers to accomodate the widebody styling. The interior is a sporty stock Camaro Z-28. Side windows have been tinted with removable 20% VIS. The dash is cracked (easily fixed by a $35 dash cover) and the driver side seat bolster is torn (but can easily be fixed by some seat covers). The lights and electrical work and the A/C blows, but it needs a recharge (the heater works great).

If you want Supercar looks (attention and compliments galore!!!) in a daily driver that you can have at a tiny fraction of the cost, this is the car for you! This is the time to do it, since financial situation warrants letting it go for very much less than desired! NO RESERVE!!! The winner will take this home!

Thank you for looking and God Bless You abundantly!

Cherry Bomb’s Disturbing the Peace 1968 Camaro 8-71 Blown LS Install!

Brian Lohnes — Tue, 12 Oct 2010 16:45:12 +0000

Cherry Bomb ran an online poll for enthusiasts to decide what the company’s next project would be and the Camaro won out over a Mustang. In typical Cherry Bomb style, the car is going to be loud, fast, and pretty freakin’ slick lookin’. This isn’t just an exhaust upgrade, these guys are doing the Camaro from soup to nuts.

DJ Grilles’ “Phantom Hidden Headlight” Kit

In the event that anyone’s finding their new Camaro has a little too much wide-eyed innocence, there’s now, of course, a dress-up grille kit available to make it look more squinty and mean. Or more like a Lincoln. And it diminishes the effectiveness of your headlights, too–check out the “install” video after the jump and you’ll see what I mean. Via Carscoop.

2012 Z28 Camaro Gives the Nurbugring a Whirl

Jen Dunnaway — Thu, 07 Oct 2010 16:59:46 +0000

This is purported to be the first video of GM’s new blown beastie doing anything cool, and between the supercharger whine and whatever exhaust setup they’re piping it through, it sounds nothing short of amazing. I love how the video shooter is besotted enough to follow the prototype home afterwards. Via Camaro5.

Live Aid Camaro Time Capsule on Barrett-Jackson Today

Jen Dunnaway — Thu, 23 Sep 2010 19:58:09 +0000

The Barrett-Jackson collector-car auction is happening this week in Vegas, and one of the flagship cars that’ll be going across the block is this 1985 Camaro, signed by just about every artist who took part in the Live Aid concert for world hunger that year. Ozzy Ozbourne, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, Run DMC, Tom Petty, at least half of the Rolling Stones, The Four Tops, Bette Midler, Carlos Santana, Robert Plant and Bo Diddly have all put their scribbles on it. A little acetone and some buffing and this’d make a great ultra-low-miles 3rd gen IROC. Whoops! I mean…

Speaking of ruining the hobby, SPEED is running a fantasy bid contest wherein you get to guess the sums that bidders will fork out for the Barrett-Jackson cars this week in the world’s most well-televised frenzy of automotive conspicuous consumption. Hey, you could win an iPad. Anyway, read about the Live Aid Camaro on the SPEED website, and see a ton more pics of it here.

Blue!
