This picture is from Easter weekend in Thruxton, England. The American Muscle was ever present. This car did particularly well winning its class. Impressive to say the least.

Re: Is "stance" important?
 

Stance IS important.

So is camera angle.

Please ignore the paint. Has been polished in a couple places, wet sanded and unpolished in others, and still completely uncut in others.
Hoping to paint stripes this week, then sand the whole car and have it buffed.
The following 3 shots were all taken within seconds of each other. No changes made to the car. The car in reality sits 5/8 inch lower in the front. Factory Z/28 would sit .38 inch higher in the front (of course, the AIM calls ro +- .38, so who knows).

From some angles the car actually looks lower in rear, and some it looks way higher in the rear.
Original size tires on the car for now. I have the YH wheels for it, but these are FW. Still need to blast and paint the YH wheels.
BTW, I also like the stance on my old 306,000 mile bimmer in the back ground on shot #3.

I prefer a low rear-quartering shot:

Low Rear quarter shot

On September 11, 2011 I was invited to attend a show and share the showroom where <span style="font-weight: bold">Scott Settlemire (Fbodfather) of General Motors </span>brought The Pride of America Camaro. Now, THAT car has a stance of its own. A proud moment for the '69.

The American Pride Camaro was commissioned by GM in the Summer of 2010. It is a 2011 Camaro and was a top secret project. It was painted at Mountain Muscle Cars in Cosby, TN. The project took about three months from start to finish. This car was the brainchild of Scott Settlemire from GM's Show car division.

Have you seen it and then paint detail reflective of those who fought for our freedom? Vietnam Vets with tears in their eyes, headstones on a hill from The Battle of Normaday, WWI and WWII and other flawless airbrushing. Pride of America has nothing to do with the car or Chevrolet; it does however reflect what these men and women gave to keep us free and to able to participate in free speech, like here.........

I had a couple conversations by e-mail with the guy. He bought it from his uncle when he was 16 years old. His Uncle (now deceased) originally bought the car at Berger and when he retired from the military eventually moved to California, taking the car with him. In 1977 he sold it to his nephew - the guy running the auction. It's been in Cali 35 years at least, but it's a Berger-bought car.

The guy standing beside the car is 5' 7&quot;.... it's low.

Took me awhile finally found picture of my 1970 Chevelle SS day I came home on Christmas leave Dec. 1969 first time I got to see Chevelle my dad ordered for me from Karen Chevrolet Phillipsburg, N.J. My dad worked there at the dealership just 6 houses up the street from our house.https://www.yenko.net/attachments/use...s_chevelle.jpg

A lot of cars on this site are not my style, but I don't voice my opinion. Why and the world would you say that about the American pride Camaro?

Oh, you're the Thought Police? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img] So what if it's a patriotic paint job - does that automatically make it a Renoir? I don't get teary-eyed by random images of patriotism, and my opinion on an uninteresting paint job doesn't determine my level of patriotism either - it is silly!

Let's keep the thread on track, shall we?

This is from about 1979 at the E-Town Car Show. This is stock ride height with optional HD front coils and 15&quot; ET mags.

Re: Is "stance" important?
 

Verne... love the 1979 look! More people need to run the pinstripe whitewall tires instead of the more common redlines and white letters.

Actually, all three looks are really cool! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
