After an extensive and over-the-top sweepstakes the previous year when Cherry Bomb gave away their highly publicized project Dodge Charger on national TV, owner Paul Banks knew it was time to outdo himself on the next one. His plan: to team with one of our favorite outfits, YearOne, to recreate his own version of the 1968 Camaro, one of the cars largely responsible for the early success of the Cherry Bomb Glasspack brand. Cherry Bomb's "Disturbing the Peace" 1968 Project Camaro blends today's radical technology with the '60s & '70s.
