'81 Camaro

The Chevrolet Camaro is a pony car manufactured by the Chevrolet division of General Motors. The second generation, styled by Henry Haga, was longer, lower and wider than the previous generation, with GM engineers stating it was "more of a drivers car" than its predecessor. The second generation was produced from 1970 to 1981 and underwent a number of restyles; it was succeeded in 1982 by a new generation of Camaro. 126,139 were produced for 1981, the generations final year, partly influenced by rising gasoline prices. This casting depicts a 1981 Chevrolet Camaro modified and fitted for bracket racing. It is loosely styled after Brendon Vetuskey first car, a 1978 Chevrolet Camaro; the number 8927 on the initial releases references the number he was assigned his car when he raced at Old Bridge Township Raceway Park in the 1990s.
