The beastly Camaro LT puts its power down to its staggered 19-inch forged aluminum wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires through aTremecT56 Super Magnum transmission and 9-inch Torsen limited-slip differential via a Hurst shifter for some old-school goodness. It also features modern disc brakes, independent rear suspension, and double-adjustable front coilovers.

Inside, there's plenty of leather and Alcantara,RecaroSportster GT front seats, and a MOMO Mod 8 steering wheel. Modern conveniences include keyless entry, wireless phone charging, wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a backup camera.

The KindredChevy 3100all-electric pickup truck is a whole different ballgame from the Camaro. Kindred sources the 1947-1953 vehicles and kits them out with a 294-horsepower direct drive electric AC motor, powered by a 74 kWh battery and supported by a 6.5 kW onboard charger with Level 1 and Level 2 charging compatibility.

It looks like a complete modernization package with double-wishbone front suspension, four-wheel power disc brakes, rack and pinion power steering, a rotary gear selector, and full LED lighting to go with a keyless entry system, power windows and locks, heated front seats, a complete HVAC system, wireless phone charging dock, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Audio.
