There has been plenty of time now to reflect on various design elements of the 52-year-old model, and three of the original designers at Shelby have teamed up again to make their dreams a reality — experimental aero and independent rear suspension included. I talked to Daniel Sculnick who’s here at SEMA with Ford and works with […]

For example, if you’re a Camaro owner, chances are pretty good that at any weekly meet you’re going to find a fellow Camaro driver to converse with.
