I love his renderings

Well John does work at GMP after all. Maybe he could help us all own a version of this...even if it is a little smaller.

That is amazing! John has some great ideas and of course mad art skills.

I just wish he would give me a discount on a rendering since he is one of my relatives.....

I am just kiddin, no direct relation.

Damn, that thing looks bad ass John. Have you ever thought of drawing up a second gen Camaro? You know, one of the mid decade cars.... Big bumper type.... You know.. Kinda golden brown in color....

I really wanted to do something different. Mopars are hot but you see plenty of Cudas and Challeners - Chargers as well. At first I thought of doin' a Roadrunner but then it hit me...how about a GTX to be really different. The GTX was always the "sport luxury" car in the B-body lineup. There were Chargers and Roadrunners used as NASCARs what if the same basic theme was applied to a GTX. Since the Hemi would be the only logical choice I merged the NASCAR theme with Hemi and GTX to come up with HEMI X. The other thing I tried not to do was go too literal with the NASCAR stuff. The car would have to be driveable. The headlight covers can be removed and even though there's a side exhaust it still has some mufflers keeping the exhaust somewhat under control. I'd really love to build this car but it's outta my budget range for sure. The motor alone. Anyways, I had fun and hope to get a chance to do something like this again with Popular Hot Rodding.

I look forward to seeing Ben and some other guys work in there as well.

I really liked the rendering. The front spoiler Rocks.

Does anyone know if someone makes a front spoiler similar to the one on HEME X, for First GEn Camaro's, in stead of the flimsy plastic ones they sell now?
