I think that art work would look a lot better on a piece of canvas. Just leave the car painted plain black and drive it.

The painting is too cool to put on a car, and the car is too cool to paint like this.

I don't think the painters <Artist> get the credit they deserve. That takes some real talent. I think the Camaro is awsome.

Is it really that difficult to spell the name correctly, when the model has been around for 40 years give or take a few?

Paint/wrap is awesome, the Camaro? Looks bloated with a beltline that makes the driver look like they're in a whole. Don't care for it at all, looks like GM did their usual hurry up me too thing. JMHO

face it, the camaro is a has been and GM should have just let that carline die. If I wanted a 69 looking camaro I would just restore one, GM failed bad on it! Hope GM completely goes under so their ugly cars will stop being made.

Mike,

I think you could come up with something similar & much better........

I like the WWI & WW2 Historic Heritage paint scheme on this Camaro.

You are a Master Custom Painter I know.

Us Corvet guys should be able to spell correctly.

(I do like the patriotic art work. )

Saw the first couple pictures and thought it was the side of an astrovan. The artwork is technically impressive, but I think the combination just is not aesthetically pleasing.
