Just about every car nut knows what it’s like to fantasize about owning a cherry red ’69 Camaro. Your heart flutters as one rumbles past you on the boulevard. You daydream about what it feels like to turn the key and feel the engine roar to life…your eyes left to linger on the black speed stripes as you put it into gear. Admit it—you aren’t peeking into driveways as you ride by houses looking for new projects! You’re hoping to find an unmolested first-gen that some old lady would like to get rid of so you can make it into your own project or sell it. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to say, “No, no, I want a four-speed in my Camaro,” or “Hmm. I think I’ll add speakers inside my headrests.” How you envy the man who gets to drive one every single weekend. His name is Don Brynestad, and his ’69 Camaro is so familiar…we just know we’ve seen it someplace before…maybe in our dreams. No wait—it was at the Car Craft Nationals in Minneapolis.

now this is what i would love to cruise in
