Some more vintage pics...Coddington Camaro!

[Xplantdad]

Thanks to cleaning out my garage this weekend...I found some long lost pics!

My step brother Paul had a Camaro that he bought from the original owner and then took to Hot Rods by Boyd (yes, that Boyd Coddington)....and just like the show, it took forever to get done. I know that the paint was a root beer brown color...and the gold was some expensive paint...

The car stayed this way for about 3 months (long enough to go to the Street Machine Nationals in Pomona...and the was rear ended at 50mph by a Nissan truck with 3 drunk Marines from Camp Pendelton.

The Camaro went back to Coddington and emerged months later without a roof (roadster) but with the same basic paint scheme...

I don't remember Paul having it for long after that...and I have no idea what became of it...

Here's the Camaro right after he bought it...at OCIR-stock 350 under the hood...
