For $56,500, Could This Autographed Hendrick-Modded 2010 Chevy Camaro SS Sign You Up?
For $56,500, Could This Autographed Hendrick-Modded 2010 Chevy Camaro SS Sign You Up?-July 2024

For some people an autograph book is good enough. For those for which it is not, I present you today’s Camaro, which has the signatures of its modder and its famous intended first owner. Let’s see if that all makes its price worth signing up for.

Man, it’s been a sad run of Crackalicious cars and trucks here this past week. I don’t quite know what to make of it. Have you all turned into Scrooge McDuck or something? I mean even yesterday’s clean and likely solid transportation couldn’t muster anything better than a 54% Crack Pipe loss, and that was for only twenty-eight hundred bucks!

Okay, today we’re swinging for cheap seats with a very expensive car. Hopefully while pricy, it will also prove a prudent investment at that price.

Here is a that has been modded by Hendrick Performance with a bunch of Calloway bits and which was originally intended as a ride for none other than Kelley Earnhardt, co-owner of JR Motorsports and daughter of legendary mustache wearer and race car driver, Dale Earnhardt. This is claimed to be numero uno out of a series of 11 cars massaged by Hendricks, and this is signed by Rick himself AND both Kelley and Dale Jr. Shee-it!

The mods include a supercharger, short-throw six-speed stick shift, suspension upgrades, fancy wheels and expensive-looking tires along with a body kit that looks like Speed Racer finally upgraded the Mach Five.

The seller, who apparently isn’t either Kelley or Dale Jr, says the car has a clean title and is “Brand New every single way.” That being said, there are 2,300 miles on the clock, so it probably doesn’t still have that new car smell. The odor that may have replaced that is Sharpie as that’s what it looks was used to tag both the headrests on the red leather seats, right on top of their SS embroidery. No sweaty bald guys or Jheri Curl in here, please!

Hendrick Performance badging denoting this as CAMARO 001 completes the bonafides inside.

So, it’s got a bunch of show, but does it back that up with copious quantities of go? The ad says there’s 650-bhp to play with, while other sources quote a substantially lower 582. Either way it’s something that’ll need to be experienced first hand to tell. I’ll give you an hour.

You probably don’t need an hour to figure out that this is a unique and interesting Camaro, and it will take far less than that to vote on whether its $56,500 price tag is just as intriguing. Still, you’ll need to make the effort.

What do you think, does its race family history, and Hendricks highjacks make this modded Camaro worth that kind of cash? Or, is this autographed car’s price a sign to run away?

You decide!

St Louis MO , or go if the ad disappears.

You might not need a refrigerator in your vehicle but if you do big trips, especially off-grid, it changes everything. After an overland adventure with Dometic’s CFX3 fridge and PLB40 power source in my rig, I can help you decide if a setup like this is something you might want...

The is a hack-job electric car with parts from the BMW i3 that somehow only gets an estimated 110 miles of range on a charge. It feels about five years late, but it’s also relatively cheap, well-equipped and a ton of fun to drive still. This new electric Mini Cooper...

With over 200K on the clock, today’s Acura has certainly been around the block. Let’s see if its price and rare six-speed stick more than make up for those miles. It’s been so long since Nissan went by Datsun here in the U.S. that few non-car people likely are...

Today’s 650i rocks amazingly huge 21-inch wheels with rubber band tires. It also comes with a rare six-speed stick. The most important number for us, however, is going to be the price. Let’s see where that lands. So, the one major issue—if you could even call it that—on yesterday’s...
