I have about a dozen Muscle Tone cars stashed in my Hot Wheels collection.

Well I took the stripes away and tried to add a crease to where I think you wanted but I left the double grill cause I couldn't figure how to change it to where it would look good.

That looks good but the double grill is wierd. What we're doing here though is still messing with a design that is almost all 1st Gen with a little Third. The open grill thing in these times doesn't do it for me. We came so far, I don't know why it would make sense to go back in that way.

Yreah you're right about that.When I did the MT design I had liked it a lot but now that I really look at it the grill is a little too big and needed to change,plus not to look too awkward. Oh well,it's a good thing that the concepts in guiom's link look awesome!

Yeah it was a rough sketch...very rough lol.Any way in that same link at the top where it says Camaros.In that section I did a few alterations of Kris horton's designs which came out better than that MT one.

Isn't that the Hot Wheels Muscle Tone car?

It's very 1st gen influenced, IMO very close to being retro. I don't care for the fron tthow, too much or too many grill(s).

I like to see some along that profile and stance with a bit more body sculpting and a more sloping hood and windshield rake.
yes it is the muscle tone camaro..the front end is 1st gen...
From what I remember about the article on the guy who designed it he said he put all the gens on the car..

1st gen front clip
3rd gen hood
1st-3rd-2nd gens respectivly going down the side of the car
2nd 4th gen rooflines
4th gen rear tail ligths..

NOW from what I have read about the actual car EVOK has seen..it needs the Nomads fender flares..can someone do that to the Muscle tone???

also what I am thinking is the headlights might be exposed almost like the GMC Canyon and Colorado..on the top and bottom and hard angled like that...
BUT the bottom ones being the amber marker lights and they are wrap arounds that go almost like the 4th gens front marker light wrap arounds.. that start where the top headlights are..get what I am saying?

so that gets rid of the bottom grill problem and also I think Fog lights will be put in somewhere..corners or center?? if its like the 68 Im betting center mounted..

what I am thinking is for the front end..

We need an ALL NEW Camaro, but still have the characteristics of the Camaro throughout history. (long wheelbase, "detuned" version of Vette engine, etc.)

I would like it to have the headlights like the C6, but not as expensive looking. Kinda like the Nissan 300ZX headlights.
well what this guy evoq said IS whats comming out..no changing that..what he saw is what the new car is going to be...
