This hybrid of ..1969 Camaro body with the engine, brakes, wheels and tires of . Corvette ZR1, called “Jackass” puts more than 500 horsepower to the rear wheels, through . Viper transmission and . live rear axle. Sounds exactly like something . Jackass could appreciate.
You see GM Engineer Mark Stielow'. alter ego is that of . famous Pro-Touring hot-rod builder by the name of Mark Stielow. His series of reworked first-generation Camaros that go and turn and stop have made him something of . hero in the muscle car world.
Jackasses that we are, we might even get . drive in this creamy yellow screamer very soon. The car is seen here very near the end of its 20-month gestation.
