Default Sneak Peak - GMP's PC 1967 Camaro

The guys at GMP thought you'd like to see a sneak peak at the next 1:18 Camaro offering. It's the next release in the Pork Chop's Chop Shop series - 1967 Camaro. It's definately something a little different and if you take a closer look at it you might find that it is along the lines of a pro-touring ride in a vintage hybrid sort of way. This new hot rod Camaro is based off of our existing 1967 T/A Camaro with a small block chevy, an induction system from a lola T70 and and a few other custom racing parts. Other cool features include stacks sticking through the lift off composite hood (magnetically attached on the model), blacked out minilites, a riveted on custom aluminum rear ducktail spoiler, and racing buckets and real cloth seatbelts with photoetch buckles. The custom gloss anthracite metallic grey and satin black paint combo round off it's tough, brutal looks! Our Pork Chop series usually sells out pretty fast - thought I'd give the pro-touring guys a heads up!

Wow, that's really cool! Looks like another for the collection.

I'll have to post up some pics of the GMP 1:12 scale C5-R. That thing is unreal.

Knowing GMP this is just a prototype so the final product may have them or it may be "customized"

It is a pre-production car but it's custom and I decided to leave the vent windows out so that it'd have a cleaner appearance. I know it's unique to the 67 and we have them tooled but the clean look I thought looked better.

It would have been easier to sell a 68 model than a 67 without the vent windows. That is just my .02 The car does look cool.
