Check Out Grady Maynard’s Awesome Supercharged Camaro

Two of the biggest groups within the car enthusiast world are those who build show cars, and those who like to make their ride go as fast as possible. Well, Grady Maynard wanted to build a car that lived in both of these worlds. Grady, with help from his brother Sam, have built a 1991 Camaro that truly is equal parts show and go.
