The hugger orange is cool, but this build is aiming to sport an Army Tan.... (or Army Green)




It's going to be a tribute build to my Father, who served in Vietnam.

The first thing he did, when he got back, was order a 67' Camaro!
I was told he waited 2 months to receive it.

It'll be sweet!

Looks like it'll be fun.

A true father son build.

Nice stand!... wheels gave up after about a month. Luckily got found some heavy duty ones at a salvage place.. just have to have Rich remove and re-mount.

Floors are in perfect shape





Trunk has a little rust, but nothing not manageable.






Hood is perfect.

Man, olive drab green with some black stripes all in a matte finish would look really cool. Maybe work in a white star or your father's company's insignia on the tail panel? There's a lot of ways to make this car look great and convey the proper appreciation. Great idea.

That's it!.. been doing some research. Olive Drab(Huey or Chinook style) with U.S. Vehicle markings. My pops dog tag #'s. Rich has been pumping out ideas... some canvas for door panels, army belt straps. flight suit/helmet. It ought to be a cool base to work off.

Yeah, I'm still sticking by this two year old comment.

Though, your choices in green are damn nice as well. Good luck!
