Question >Modern Camaro with retro plastic surgery <









<figcaption>A modern Camaro with retro plastic surgery

Up for sale at Mecum Houston 2013 is a 2001 Camaro convertible that someone retro-ized with the body from a 1968 Camaro. Is this the best of both worlds? Or is it the wrong kind of compromise? Take a look and judge for yourself. Post your comments `OK * Source Road & Track April 2013

They just don't have the right body lines anymore.

I see what you did there. lol. Thanks! And no problem.


Also along the lines of the whole body lines not being right all I really have to say is that I give props to the custumization and creativity that went into making something like this. I feel like someday I might be the one doing custom stuff like this to cars. The vette doesn't look as good as the camaro but it is cool in its own way!
