hot auto review

Air Ride Technologies' previous 1967 Camaro was stolen from a hotelparking lot during the Year One Experience in 2007. Since that time thecompany garage has been without it's own first gen platform to experimentwith.

That has changed. Precision Coachworks (the Air Ride Technologies sistercompany / car building shop) has finished a new 1968 Camaro - Velocity.The Camaro debuted at The Year One Experience at Road Atlanta May 16,17 & 18th, 2008.

The VELOCITY Camaro car started off as an incredibly straight survivor car.The six cylinder has been replaced by a new World Products' Warhawk 427LS engine that is dyno proven for 614 HP.

The suspension is the complete Street Challenge air suspension packagefrom Air Ride Technologies. The front system consists of the StrongArm(TM),DA ShockWaves(R), Musclebar(TM), PosiLinks(TM), and billet tie rod adjusters.The rear system uses the AirBar(R) and DA ShockWaves(R) in conjunction withthe Detroit Speed mini tubs to allow the larger 335 series rear tire. The4100 series AirPod(TM) with the LevelPro(TM) sensors controls the air system. The Camaro also uses a 12.7:1 steering box from Detroit Speed.

The color is "Hot Hues Velocity Orange", a special Hot Hues color mixedspecially for this project. The bare metal stripes were accomplished by thecraftsmen at Precision Coachworks.

Note there is no rear spoiler and a flat hood. This car was so perfect that it needed no panel replacement and no panel repair, interior or exterior. Thewhole car could have been bare-metal-clearcoat finished like the stripes ifdesired.
