1968 Chevrolet Camaro Diecast Model 1:18 Scale

I’ve been obsessed with muscle cars since my early teenage years, but my passion for the Chevrolet Camaro in particular knows no bounds. In fact, my first car was a refurbished 1970 Camaro that my dad helped me to restore. Looking back now, it’s pretty incredible how much time and money I put into that car over the years. When I see people taking their cars for granted, neglecting their exteriors and going for months on end without maintenance, I cringe.

Now that my son is old enough to recognize and differentiate between cars, I’ve started buying him a series of 1/18 die cast cars. It should come as no surprise that his very first model was a 1968 Z28, a car remarkably similar to my own real-life pride and joy. I’m hoping that as my son grows older we spend valuable bonding time restoring old cars in the garage.
