Suggest that you get "Camaro - Rebirth of a Legend" --
IN the book you'll find many photographs - and an entire chapter about how the concept was designed.
The entire team felt that to do a 'retro' Camaro would be limiting its appeal.
Most people who say "you should have made it more retro" -- are over 50 -- and the reality is that the new Camaro MUST appeal to a wider audience.
Thus -- there were several designs -- but Mr. Wellburn pushed the team to push further out...........
If you take a new Camaro -- and over it in white silk, it does not look like a Camaro in profile -- but when you remove the silk, you see a fresh design with "heritage styling cues"
I won't go into the hidden headlights issue again -- I've written about it until I'm blue in the face.........
One last thought: I would not want to 'repaint' the Mona Lisa --
.........and one needs to be careful when 'redoing' a 1969 Camaro -- it could come off looking like a 1970 Barracuda!
