The 1968 Chevrolet Camaro is a vehicle that is often used in films. And one of them was featured in the 2014 Need for Speed with Aaron Paul. He was involved in the first street racing scene in the film and this vehicle, which is now being presented in a video by AutotopiaLA, is an original vehicle from the strip. Dangers of Tanner Foust (Stunt driver in Need for Speed) it is one of two "Evil Twins" vehicles that were specially built for the screen at the time and are still intact. Both cars were almost identical and were made by one LS3 V8 engine with an output of over 500 PS and 5-speed manual transmission fired. But the most interesting mechanical upgrade in our opinion is the double brake calipers behind the Forgeline rims.
Way home on four wheels
In the video there is the complete background story (in English) and other interesting things about the vehicle. Although the many graphics from back then have been removed so that you can no longer understand the replica of the video game, the real connoisseurs will see it anyway. And the current owner even flew to Atlanta (Georgia) himself and decided, after buying the vehicle, to bring it back to California on "its own wheels". The clutch was causing him problems on the way, but with the help of Aaron Kaufman, that was dealt with quickly.
