A special Chevy Camaro was sent down to the auction floor of Barrett-Jackson’s annual Scottsdale event to raise money for a worthy cause. The Military Tribute Camaro sold for an impressive $175,000, which will help support the Achilles Freedom Team, which helps wounded veterans of all services overcome their injuries through athletics, including marathons.
The whole car has been painstaking airbrushed by award-winning artist Mickey Harris. It’s all about the troops and it managed to impress some while touring 30 military bases across the country, as well as the Pentagon.

“The Military Tribute Camaro was designed to honor our armed forces heroes. Now, thanks to its generous new owner, it will help our injured veterans rebuild their lives through the excellent work of the Achilles Freedom Team,” said Chris Perry, vice president, Global Chevrolet Marketing and Strategy.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s.
