“Snowblind” TT 67 Camaro from EBMC
 
After I sold my Mustang, We were looking for the next shop car and decided to do a 67 Camaro to use at autocross events and as a demonstration vehicle for prospective customers. We found a suitable shell and had Ben Hermance do a rendering of what I had in mind and he applied some great ideas on it as well, this was over a year ago.
Well a customer came in, liked what he saw and bought the car and wants it done exactly like the rendering! So I still don't have a car of my own, but he will be taking it to many events and using it the way we wanted to. It will feature Art Morrison front and rear clips, 800 hp twin turbo LS3, T56 magnum, with triangulated 4 link in back. The car is getting vinyl wrapped in Satin grey, carbon hood with Satin clear, shaved drip rails, flush glass and Rushforth wheels in 2 tone. Everything is going the flat look and I know some people are going to love it and some people are going to hate it,but it was going to be my personal car and thats what I wanted!

What an awesome renedering :thumbsup: Really like the look and sounds like you have a great plan. And for what it's worth I think the "satin" look is going to be killer :unibrow:

Really diggin all the design queues and color except for the magenta. Different for sure, just not my personal preference. My style would run closer to a flat red. Car looks great.

The "magenta" is actually closer to a burgundy. The actual powder coat code is called "Crimson Red"

Thanks for the comments guys! It's a maroon metallic but I usually render the cars in a natural/outdoor environment with the blue sky reflecting some blue tones. That could be why it may appear Magenta. I can't wait to see this one completed. Thanks for the opportunity to help out!:thumbsup:

Some of the metallics look really deep. I'm sure it'll look great fellas!

That should be a killer car.
Keep us updated.

Looks like a great project, would love to see this in progress, and see the rear clip installed.

EBMC 04-08-2011 11:48 AM

Thanks everyone, the rear frame section fit the floor contour very good and combined with the front clip we have a full framed car.
