Ok... This time it is new.

After about a year of legal entanglement, its now finally possible to get Dynacorns long-awaited first-gen Camaro body shell - officially sanctioned by the General, no less. Those wanted to bolt together your own would be well advised to check out the December 05 issue of Hot Rod, as they document a build-up in 36 pages. To be honest, the coverage barely scratches the surface; heck, 36 pages might not be sufficient to comprehensively cover the process used to paint the cars valve covers. Its still damn good auto journalism. As to the price, the only mention I saw was expensive, and when car guys say that word, they mean it. Oddly enough, while Hot Rods website has no mention of this article, its sister magazine Super Chevy has a couple pages on the subject. Go check it out, and witness the greenness.

Those wanting a turnkey car can go to Baldwin-Motion for its firebreathing 540-cube SuperCoupe. Remember back in August, when we estimated that the price would be well over $100K? Our reader Mike popped in to say that itd be something more like $427K, and, well, he hit it on the head. Those choking on their food after seeing that price will surely be comforted by the fact that there will also be a Phase III model thats something more of a period-correct replica, going for a bit under $200K.

i saw this on some news story, these people have been building camaros since the sixties or something in new york. 427k for a 427ci motor...jesus...
 
no s***, for that much money you can buy a kickass Porche and a Ferrari and still have beer money left over
 
s***, you could buy the best of the best of that era-a DZ302 car for 1/10 that...or heck even a 427 copo for less than 1/4 that...

For that kind of money, I'd want something like a 1970 426hemi 'cuda convertible...1 of 14..

Hell you could buy a frw 69 Yancos Z28s for that. But this is just for the really rich car collectors. This will one day be like the AC cobra, so they hope.
 
More interesting from that site is this! A carbon-bodied 3-rotor RX-8!

Yes, please.
