1969 3rd gen Yenko Camaro???
I saw this one while I was driving down the street today- At first I laughed, but on further inspection the body work wasn't half bad! Not sure what it has under the hood, but it has a ticket on the windshield!

OK, for some reason Yahoo! is not cooperating with me... I guess I'll just have to post them individually.

You have to give him some credit, must guys that do things like that do it half assed, but to put a front end from a car that has modern day attributes on a 60's muscle car with chrome accents is just plain wrong

Definitely appreciate the work, but I don't like it at all.
Where is this car located in?

Okay being the "black sheep" that I am, I will say that I actually like it. I admire the ingenuity and I kind of like the blending of the styles, now would I ever dream of doing it, NO WAY! But lets just say if that was a project to give GM a general idea of what I would like a 5th gen to look like, I would be on that bandwagon in a second. I think it looks so weird because the lines obviously do not flow like they should. I wouldn't have placed the decals on it either.
My thanks to drop-top IROC for getting the pictures in so that I could add my

Put 2nd gen. rear glass and round taillights on it, and drop an LS1 in it and you have a Camaro for all generations!

Yep, it is a lot more orange in person... been parked in that same spot on Ximeno for about a week and a half now. Hopefully it gets moved occasionally- if it gets more than a few tickets on it, it will end up at the City tow yard on Willow.
Maybe it was stolen and dumped there?
