Anyone ever see this Camaro test mule before? It's at the Corvette Museum in Bowling Green.
This car is one of the "Cor-camaro" test mules designed to test the C5's engine and drivetrain systems in their earliest stages. Each car was modified from a 4thGen Camaro to accept all the C5 systems intact. This type of approach kept the spy photographers at bay during the earliest stages of C5 testing. Maybe GM should have adapted this body to the SS Camaros....?

When you see it up close , it has a few battle scars , the area on the lower part of the spoiler isn't a reflection in the pic here , it's a chunk of missing paint. Somebody must have had some fun on the test track in it.

ive seen some up close pics of the car. it was okay, but you could really tell that the wheels didnt really line up right with the car, like the suspision was to short for the car. but i would say that gm didnt care about this at the time. i mean all they were doing was testing the C5 with out the corvette body
