Default Re: Custom 67 Camaro

I'm with you. I think George Barris was highly overrated. His brother Sam was actually the better designer and builder according to all the custom car gurus and what most people don't realize is Sam actually built/designed most of the "milestone" early Barris cars for George. Sam was an employee of George. I believe when Sam passed away at a young age, the Camaro above is what we are left with from George. I saw some Mustangs he did that were equally hideous. Woodgrain on the side and round opera windows in the rear pillars ala thunderbird. I shiver to this day at their sight.
