Sometimes, we do get to see them American muscle cars here in Bolehland

Of course this totally depends on sheer luck or the original importer of the vehicle who must have been slightly mad at the time wanting a huge 2 door left hand drive car in Right hand drive Malaysia. What we have here is a 1st Generation late sixties Chevrolet Camaro SS with the largest reverse scoop that has ever set foot on a bonnet of a car. Note that it is actually longer than the the classic BMW CS and even the Kia parked to its left. Spotted in front of a classic car workshop in Ara Damansara, Petaling Jaya.


The tyres (and mag wheels) are a tad too wide and tall for the Chevy's arches, but it sounds like what a proper V8 equipped musclecar should. Rolling thunder. And the Perodua Kelisa parked beside it somehow seems smaller than ever. American coupes have that effect on tiny 'kei' cars.
