The tuners from aLL STaR Performance have revealed this image of the custom Chevy Camaro SS set to debut at the 2010 SEMA Show in a few weeks. They’ve been teasing the tuning enthusiasts with the Camaro under wraps, but we now have the clear picture of the project. From what we can see, Gene Marcel will take a more conservative route with this car, keeping the natural lines of the Chevy Camaro in tack. The paint job comes courtesy of Dupont, while a set of Forgestar wheels wrapped in Falken high performance tires complete the exterior.

Up for sale at the Volo Auto Museum in Illinois is this matte gray 1970 Dodge Charger RT movie car, which claims to have been driven by Vin Diesel as Dominic Toretto in the 2009 Fast and Furious movie. Not only being a movie car, the custom Charger features a stripped and modified interior with a new sport steering wheel, plenty of gauges, and an automatic V8 with a large supercharger and intake coming out the hood. They say the appraised value is $200,000, however I have a hard time believing that due to the fact that Hemmings values a 1970 Dodge Charger RT around $28,995 to $74,900. But I guess spending the extra 100k for an all time classic movie car could be worth it. Fortunately they have “marked” the price down to $129,998 for anyone interested.
