So finally my 69' has a buddy in the garage. Bought at insurance auction, smashed up face, and needing lots of tlc. He's all better now. Not quite the BRAND new Camaro I was aiming for, but perfect. Now I don't need to buy one, having to strip it and rebuild. Stock motor is going into something else. New body parts, new heart. He's waiting to cruise to Sema |

Amazing looking car. Those Classic Camaro badges (I think they are classic) look great, they really caught my eye, considering how much awesome went into this car. Cool video as well

I like how Tjin has dabbed in like japanese, and american. I am anxious to see him build something like the new M3 or a Bent GTC, or something. He's one of the reasons I love mix and matching parts from everywhere on certain cars, from my Cobalt to my Silverado, and etc.
Its nice to see people trying new things, and a different look and approach. Not everything someone does is ganna be popular with everyone, I never liked seeing the last production ss's and ws6's with GTR badges on them or SIR on them, or ugly giant wings from pep boys, or saturday morning special wheels made in some 3rd world country that weigh to much and cheaply chromed, mounted on them. Or weird flame sticker decal stripes up the side that were peeling and or discolored...etc... Riced up American muscle is disgusting. However a "Tuner" approach to American muscle can be tasteful. Tuner being the Americanized term adopted by youth americans who over glammed their civics and integras...Tjin is a good example of what can be transplanted universally from one automotive culture "scene" to another. Much like some guy taking a first gen cammy and dropping a 2jz into there, I dont like it. I dont agree with it, and reminds me of a mustang fastback with a RB26 slapped in its engine compartment in a stupid movie. However I can appreciate the clean execution of work, and ability the car can still garner with a different heart beating under the hood. Much like a White 09 Bmw M3 running around Laguna Beach with a 7.0L LS7 and a Supercharger.... Weird and odd, but still cool none the less. Some people just go to the beat of their own drum. Respect given where deserved, and he deserves it.

Is that body kit (not hood) available for purchase? I think the front is Rev, what about the side skirts and rear?

I wonder if that is an "off the shelf" color? Or something totally custom? I'd really like to paint my GTO something similar to that.

Hey Guys. Sorry that we haven't posted any new pics in a few months. We have been busy getting the Tjin Edition Camaro ready for this years Tjin Edition RoadShow. Here are a few pics of the Camaro at the LA and SD Auto Show last month. We have a few more surprises in store before the car re-debuts in April...like new gauges, big brakes, and exterior goodies. Enjoy and thanks to everyone for the kind words!
