This may be what he was talking about but I never saw the Z28 stiching

"KINGPIN" 12-09-2008 06:56 PM

Sorry about the beging advertisement, didn't know how to remove that

Stingr69 12-09-2008 07:07 PM

It had "Dale Jr's" signature stitched into the seats.

-Mark.

Camaro Dave 12-09-2008 07:41 PM

Thanks for the video. Sorry about the advertisement in the original title. One of the photo captions say ( The Dale Jr. Interior features a Z28 sewing pattern on the retrimed seats)No Z28 embroidery but it does look prety good Hr is also having some fun with some Firebird concept ideas. Personally I prefer the camaro. Cant wait for it to come of the truck.

TonytheTiger 12-09-2008 07:45 PM

Z28 sticked in the seats? no i think your mistaken.

SEMA camaros article in February 2009 issue of Hot Rod magazine
 
I did a search and don't think anyone's posted this yet. If so - my apologies. Anyway, the February 2009 issue of Hot Rod magazine has a nice write-up and some good professional photos of the SEMA camaros. The magazine also stated the SEMA GM racing camaro would be at the Daytona 24 Hours weekend in February racing in the Grand Am Koni Challenge Series.

Oh yeah and for you firebird lovers, the magazine throws some fuel on the rumor fire for a '12 Firebird by commissioning automotive designer Murray Pfaff to do some pretty bad-ass renderings of a would-be Firebird.

any links or pics? and i highly doubt the 'bird will return, especially with the current financial state of the industry. they even delayed the Camaro convertible because they can't afford to work on it right now

Evilkosh99 12-11-2008 10:39 PM

I'm pretty sure the only videos available at hotrod.com are those that were released about the SEMA cars prior to the show -- otherwise the website doesn't have anything about the article. I'll try and scan and post some of the photos tomorrow.

Sterling 12-15-2008 02:15 AM

I can't believe the load of crap that magazine is putting out to the public...
GM said that there will be NO FIREBIRD... and have you seen the Editors page?

He's spouting off about how "The Yenko Lives" and he can't believe that Yenko hasn't already sent out a press release announcing the car.

I can't believe how uninformed these car magazines are.
THERE IS NO MORE YENKO CHEVROLET! :paddle:

There are some really nice pic's though... I really enjoyed those!

Camaro_Corvette 12-15-2008 09:40 AM

LOL, for a while I was soo fed up with magazine articles that people posted, that i actually had "Please don't post another magazine article again" in my sig. Just listen to GM, they have to sell cars, magazines have to sell rumors. That's just the way it is.

I remember the AMC bit, that was funny. :bellyroll:

Agreed - there is no actual evidence whatsoever that there will be the return of the bird, but I still think the renderings are cool

odie23 12-16-2008 09:08 AM

The only news release I'll believe is the one posted by Mr. TransAm himself; Burt Reynolds, followed quickly by Sally Field with a Flying Nun Firebird edition.

FYI - New Hot Rod Magazine (Camaro on Cover)
 
The lastest Hot Rod Magazine has the Sema Camaros featured. (bought magazine last night)
These are the best pictures I have seen. Good article!

Not sure if anyone has posted this already.

Rallyman6 12-16-2008 01:17 PM

:iono:
sorry - i'll search next time

2010_5thgen 12-16-2008 02:56 PM

i love firebirds..........but that firebird is hideous!

djsnoflake 12-16-2008 03:02 PM

I think that firebird looks awesome, except the grill looks to smiley. Of course, I owned a 76 so I am a bit biased. I thought that the 70s firebirds always looked better than the camaros. (Please don't punch me in the face now)

It has some pictures that I don't remember seeing before of some of the prep work on those cars.

Arioch 12-30-2008 03:42 PM

My first car was a firebird (79) so I'm partial to them but I think the new camaro looks way better then the firebird concept..... very ugly seems like they could have done something more interesting, perhaps if they had based it on an earlier version of the firebird...

Still its interesting to think about.

Yeahyouknwit 12-30-2008 03:43 PM

How fitting is it that on the cover of the mag there are pics of the camaro and the new mustang

Moose 12-30-2008 03:54 PM

I picked up a copy a few weeks ago. I love the LS7 Camaro! :bow:

I think I'm going to frame the cover for the garage, and there's an ad for 'Tremec' inside with the LS7 which I may save as well. That LS7 is one bad Camaro. :thumbsup:

josh1147 12-30-2008 03:57 PM

For the GOOD of GM....get rid of Pontiac or take it back to its racing heritage only....we don't need both the Camaro and Firebird....

zebra 12-30-2008 08:14 PM

so you won't believe what i saw today!! has anybody seen this one yet?
