Poor Camaro

Let's hope the organs from this terminal patient find their way as life rejuventating transplants in other ill Camaro's. Look like an actor in a MadMax movie. No title either.

So, it was wrecked, all the stuff was stripped off of it and now the carcass is being sold online?

Oh the humanity!!!


Or should it be, car-manity?

This has the potential to be built as a drag car. By stripping so many of the components, this place actually reduced the expense and effort necessary to build a serious performance machine for track use. All you'd need to do is slap on some lightweight panels, install appropriate safety equipment, and build a high-performance drivetrain.

Someone was really concerned about weight savings on their Camaro.
Reminds me of this:

This is not a bad buy... Slap a 57 Chevy body on or something.

It would be a TON of work but worth it.

VEHICLE OVERTURNED
AIR BAG DEPLOYED
VERY SEVERE DAMAGE REPORTED
Just like I thought... They removed the roof because there wasn't really any roof left... They must've done a little work to get it back and running and put the front airbags back in...

I'm guessing only the side air bags deployed. The roll-over probaly did not begin with a frontal impact which left the front bags intact.
At first I thought this car was a theft recovery and someone hacked the roof off because they wanted a sunroof.
Interesting the car only comes with a bill of sale and no title. This is probably intended to prevent someone re-vinning a stolen Camaro with the one from this wreck.
