On September 19th we held our last car show of the season. It was our second annual car show with Kraemer & Sons, Inc. Custom Builders--Building a Fall Classic. It was an unusually hot September day, hitting 90 degrees. There was plenty of shade to keep people cool though and great food from Gess What's Cookin'. Check out our drone video with more photos coming.

How we would fix the Chevrolet Camaro
By Autoblog Staff September 8, 2021
Cars quite often miss the mark. Sometimes that means it was a critical failure. Sometimes that means it was a critical darling that didn't translate into sales. Sometimes, worst of all, critics panned it and people avoided it. You know, the Azteks of the world. In this series, we will attempt to "fix" such cars by offering (mostly) constructive suggestions for correcting the issues that caused the car in question to irk car reviewers like ourselves and/or cause the buying public to go "meh."
To begin, we could think of no better candidate than today's sixth-generation Chevrolet Camaro...

2022 Chevrolet COPO Camaro Unveiled With Biggest V8 From Any American Automaker
By Peter Holderith
July 30, 2021
IT POPS WHEELIES, JUST LIKE YOU HOPED FOR.
Chevy has unveiled the newest COPO Camaro, and it's a bit more...aggressive than expected. Sure, the classic COPO's 7.0-liter monster was nothing to sneeze at, but this latest version goes even further. Forget 427 cubic inches; that's just not enough.
As well as being offered with a supercharged 5.7-liter V8 and the classic 427, the new COPO Camaro enters the 2022 model year with a 9.4 liter—or 572-cubic-inch—V8. Indeed, it's the largest car engine GM makes.

First Images of the 2022 Chevy Camaro with New Vivid Orange Paint
By Sam McCeachern June 17, 2021
General Motors has shared the first image of the 2022 Chevy Camaro finished in the vibrant new Vivid Orange Metallic exterior paint color.
The new Vivid Orange Metallic paint color (RPO code GCF) is set to replace the current orange hue on the Camaro’s color palette, Crush. The Crush orange color is a gloss paint, whereas Vivid Orange has a shinier metallic finish and also appears slightly darker. Chevy has not said how much Vivid Orange Metallic will cost to order, but the Orange hue that it replaces carried a $395 price premium.
