Each and every one of us behind the scenes, as well as most of you reading this, have a story that involves a car and how it changed some facet of your life. For some, it’s the one car that defined a particular time in their life. In my case, I guess the best way to phrase it is that there is a car for each “chapter” of my story. Whatever the case, the connection between someone and what that set of wheels represents is always a story worth listening to. It might not make much sense to everyone, but no matter what, it’s integral to the storyteller.
In this Petrolicious film, you are introduced to Adam Martin and his 1968 Chevrolet Camaro he has named “Lucy”. Lucy is a pretty typical build…a 454, automatic, and a semi-restored appearance. But ever since acquiring what was a seriously beaten Camaro with pizza delivery money as a teenager, the process of improving upon the car has directed Adam’s life towards his current profession as an automotive restorer. Click play below to hear how Lucy put Adam on the track to his current spot in life.
I love these Petrolicious videos. I wished the did more American cars instead of odd Euro stuff like Alpinas, Tatras and Lancias.
