eviltwincustoms Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Man I like this Camaro Funny Car! I have never really been much of a flopper kind of guy but this combines two of my favorite subjects. The 69 camaro and drag racing.... I have been trying to hold myself back from buying a 1/16 funny car to start as a project... John you are making this really hard for me here.
