The best thing about the following crowdfunding campaign are that it can cater to two kinds of people, which in some cases may even be the same person.
Rockers, whose hearts are still beating for old-school thrash and speed metal bands like Metallica, Anthrax, Slayer or Annihilator will probably rejoice at the details of this story.

At the same time, fans of customized American muscle may have a similar feeling when learning that the rock band Annihilator is selling its singer's customized Camaro SS.

Technically, this is not your average famous rock memorabilia auction, but it's part of a crowdfunding campaign on IndieGogo. In short, The Canadian rockers from Annihilator are raising money for touring, a mini-documentary and a live concert DVD in the upcoming year.

Although they are a famous rock band with a discography of 15 rather successful albums behind them, the current state of the rock music industry, especially when it comes to “harder genres,” is forcing them to resort to a somewhat peculiar crowdfunding campaign.

To return the favor, the band has created seven types of perks for people who donate on IndieGogo. Hardcore Annihilator fans can get anything from an autographed postcard and two guitar picks from Annihilator founder and frontman, Jeff Waters, to a signed guitar, concert tickets for life or a two-day visit to Jeff's home/studio.

None of that is probably particularly interesting for the muscle car fans we talked about earlier, so the band has also thrown in Jeff Waters' own custom “Annihilator Edition” 2012 Chevrolet Camaro SS.

There aren't many details available about the car, but the description does say that it comes with a “killer audio/nav system from Cerwin-Vega,” new high-performance tires, wheels from American Racing, unspecified engine mods, and an unnamed aftermarket exhaust system.

That said, if by any chance you're a die-hard Annihilator or thrash metal fan on the lookout for a customized Gen V Chevrolet Camaro and are sitting on a money pile that should consist of exactly $66,666, this is probably the car for you. Unless you have something against paying that specific amount of moolah, of course.

Along with the car, you will also get two autographed Annihilator guitars, a signed guitar amp, two guest list tickets to any Annihilator show for life and spend two days at Jeff's home and studio. Sounds like a pretty sweet deal to us!
