no, it's a blurry picture of the clay mock up.

It looks like the "retroer" version posted earlier.

This isn't the same clay mockup as the original leaked pics. this one is different. The headlights and front clip are different, and the rear end is completely different. This is the one that was taken in the side-by-side photos with the yellow '69.

Re: Scrapped camaro found?

Perhaps this is the other side of the same clay mock up?

We never saw a shot of the drivers side, which was styled slightly different as we could tell form the frontal pictures.

The pic is pretty blurry, though... hard to tell if the "seam" is running down the middle of that car...

Looks photoshopped and intentionally distorted.

Re: Scrapped camaro found?

Interesting... I had not seen that picture before.......

Looks like it is indeed a second mock up car... wonder why they split one in half, but not this "new" one...??


PS: Mr. Welburn looks like he is enjoying his job in that shot

Um......................

Zoom in on the front fender of the car on the left....... in front of the wheel well................ is that a "427" Badge?!

This would be particularly interesting...... with the LS7/no LS7 talk.... since it is basically 427 cubic inches.... (I know you can round it's displacement up to 428, but I prefer to truncate. )

I cant make out the first 2 numbers, but the last is certainly a 7 and their are 2 before it.

Re: Scrapped camaro found?

The car on the left looks terrible in the front. Looks wimpy and dorky.

Re: Scrapped camaro found?

Could be 327 instead of 427 since there's been talk of a base V8 engine, but it's most likely where the side markers go. It also could have been GM just playing around, but if they're reading, here's another vote for the LS7.
