Anyone know what the music playing was? It sounds like Astral Projection or some other really cool trance.

Cool video btw thank you...

OLD GUYS WORKING ON THE LINE !!!! Us old guys are building your dream car !! And for the record the average age in my group is 48. I guess if you want a bunch of teenagers and rookies building your Camaro thats one thing , but to call us senior citizens, Bloody Hell i hope your being sarcastic.

No, you're not. I would have liked to see some of the interior being installed too....

I would rather have experience than some new teenagers that might take the easy way out. I would be honored to have my future car built by your group. Thanks for all your hard work.

hey thnx, nice vid!!!

fastball · 03-24-2009, 09:50 PM

My thread made the front page of the website! Cool!!

Thrills, believe me when I tell you - you WANT people with experience, dedication, and knowhow to build our Camaro.

One does not attain such traits by the time they are 25 years old.

I am HONORED to have only the best and most experienced people build my car.

does anyone know how long it takes from the beginning of the line to the other, to build a Camaro? days? hours? Just curious..!

fbodfather said it takes about 4 days

This car obviously has the IOM interior, I see the door panel inserts, but can anyone tell whether it runs across the upper part of the dash?

Nice find, sweet vid, I wish there was a longer version!

Hah, being in my 30's I wish got all those senior discounts my dad does but I don't think I have nearly enough gray to pull that off lol, of course dad has the gray these days but has mixed feelings on those discounts.

Im still simply in awe of the car. And it's seeming perfection. All of my gripes about even the trim levels and packages have been resolved. Some of the reviews talk about a so-so manual tranny in the SS, but doesnt bother me, as I am getting the auto. A little heavy too, but looks and build quality take their toll somewhere. Otherwise, remarkable. Simply and utterly beautiful.

Has anyone heard anything about a possible commercial? Also, will there be Camaros in dealerships anytime soon? Or are they filling the pre-orders before they put anything on the showroom floor?
