Chevrolet "Camaro"
Today I'm writing about a historical outline of
"Chevrolet Camaro", a GM's bland car.
In fact, we know this car very well, especially as a yellow car.
Why?
It is because many of us watched this car on one movie.
The Movie is "Transformers".
Bumblebee, a metal living organism, is usually this car's form.
And in particular, I watched its toy model many times.
About one year ago, I draw it by Design Stroke Method.
So, for me, he is profoundly memorable.
Well, let's get down to business.
Camaro has gone through 4 times model changes.
So the current Camaro is fifth model.

Camaro was created as a "Mustang Killer" in 1966.
(Mustang is a Ford's sports car, 1962)
As a matter of fact, the car's project was put forward a suggestion in 1961. Bill Mitchell, American automobile designer, wanted to create a compact sports car which was a little larger than European sports car.
This project's prototype model was called "XP-836"
But the brains of GM rejected it.
After that, Mustang was sold explosively.
They made a grave mistake.
They called the development team in a hurry, and created him.
From then, an ideology of him is inexpensive offer suited for individual taste, in spite of mass production.
As from today's blog, I'll write about each model.
To be continued...
