Project Sicario by Speedtech

Amongst a busy shop one of the new builds we've got going is this ballistic '67 Camaro! This is a father and son team, Dave and Mason out of Texas, that picked up a '67 Camaro to upgrade a little. Well as anything goes, one thing led to another and the car was brought here instead and it has all snowballed into Project Sicario, with an emphasis on the SIC part. If you're not sure what Sicario means, it's Spanish for Hitman. When the dust settles and this bad dude rolls out of the shop it'll be packing some heavy heat and I'm pretty sure he's got some other Ponies on the list to take out at the track.

As with any good project hashing out the details through the rendering process nailed the design down. Note the smoothed lines, 69 style front valance, and the late model Z28 louvers. The gray hood insert is timeless and adds that perfect design element that will emphasize the louvers. Over all simple and smooth and very black.

Not to get off the beaten path, but Sicario was a dope movie. Benecio Del Toro was awesome. Now, with that in mind, if this car turns out just as gangster as the movie, I know it'll be sick.

Love it! Especially the front lights. Adding the 69 valence and keeping the turn signals in the grill just looks good to me. I've always thought the 69 looked better with driving lights in the valence instead of the turn signals. :peepwall:

I for one am super excited to see this build! Can't wait to see it! I especially can't wait to see the Z28 louvers, I've seen the late model ZL1 hood done (" Lou's Change)and have been waiting to see someone do the Z28! Super excite!

Hrm, I'm wondering if some new parts/ideas will also be making an appearance as it get built...

This is what Sicario started out as. It was a fairly nice mild build done up by the original owner. Dave bought it from her several years ago and during that time put a fresh drive train in it. That's all fine and dandy but apparently the SBC and suspension just wasn't cutting it. So how does a new Speedtech ExtReme suspension and a 700+ hp 427 LS/T56 combo sound? Well, more on that later...

Some teardown pics. The worst rust was in the lower back window channel.

That is an awesome rendering and I can't wait to see the progress.
