New Hemmings Cover

[Bill Pritchard]

Pardon me while I play devil's advocate here...

While I am truly impressed with the beauty and level of detail on John's car (or at least as much as can be gleaned from pictures in a magazine), what statement is made by having this car in the running for Hemmings 'Muscle Car of the Year' award

[x Baldwin Motion]

I certainly hope someone is cooking up that Z16 vert to compete.

Very nice car, and congrats on the accolades.......but how can a car that was never made be in the running for muscle car of the year? Not hating the car at all, just questioning Hemmings.

He proved it was "real" with his documentation.So now it's Muscle Car of The Year!

Barrett Jackson here we come!

Does it have to be a "real"car to be considered Muscle Car of The Year?

I saw it in the 2009 Camaro Calendar!

no big deal how many calendars, books, shirts over the years have we seen that have cars in/on them so far off from correct it hurts to look at them.....no different today.

I just aquired the Aug issue of Hemmings Muscle Machines with wagonman's 1968 Z/28 convertible on the cover.I had to ask the clerk to pull it out of the back.She said it will not be on the shelf until next week.

Although i'm not to keen on the fake documentation,the car and article are very entertaining.It is a very nice 8 page spread that seems very complimenting.I was hoping to be able to read the text on the doc's in the magazines print but the picture is to small.

Being in Hemmings Muscle Machines Magazine and receiving such national recognition must increase a cars stature.

But in this case i think it would be a good idea to have a copy of the magazine around to prove it's fake heritage and lower it's possible value at any auction.

This is only my opinion.I love the car.It is probably my favorite first generation camaro excluding all the controversy it may bring.

Nice Job indeed.
