Brett's 1973 Camaro
I can respect your opinion, but I think I need to reply. Yeah the market is tough right now and FOOSE or Coddington didn't build it, but it sure does get a lot of attention and is very function. Many people prefer to build all out show cars and trailer them everywhere. I did that and won at both Goodguys we entered our truck in (and 14 other local events). The problem was the it wasn't fun. So for this car, I focused more on simple and functional. I can drive the car anywhere at anytime and enjoy it. Silver is easy to keep clean and buffs out with less effort. It has great body lines and fit. I can take the car to an autocross event and be COMPETIVE in the class I drive in. It was fun beating that C5 Corvette among other cars a couple of weeks ago. This car looks good, makes good power, stops on a dime, and handles awesome. This is not a car that you buy all the coolest parts and brag to your buddies about who's stuff you bought and how much you spent. This is one you can show and drive hard. If that is what some one is looking for, then this is the car for them. If they want to take a car from show to show on a trailer and brag about how shiny and cool the parts are, then your statement would be correct. However, I must note that bought some high end parts too. ATS spindles, Coilovers on all 4 corners, G-bar, C-5 disk brakes, Boze Forged wheels, and etc. The difference is that everything I bought has a purpose and function, instead of just being "billet" or "built by___."
I hope this makes sense.
