A custom 1967 Chevrolet Camaro is heading to the 2016 SEMA Show.
WD-40 Company has partnered with SEMA Cares to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the SEMA Show, as well as the 50th anniversary of the Camaro. The custom project will be unveiled this November in Las Vegas before it crosses the auction block next year with proceeds from the sale going to Childhelp, an organization that provides services to abused and neglected children. It will also benefit the SEMA Memorial Scholarship Fund, which provides scholarships to students entering the automotive aftermarket.

The 1967 Chevrolet Camaro is designed by Neil Tjin and is built in partnership with Tjin and instructors from Universal Technical Institute. The engine, transmission, suspension, wheels and tires will be installed on PowerNation TV and the entire build will showcase how WD-40 products are used by automotive professionals in their restoration and customization projects.
Other partners involved with the project include Eckler’s, Budnik Wheels, Axalta, Eibach, Falken Tires, Baer Brake Systems, LR Auto Body and Optima Batteries.
“This Camaro project is very exciting for us because it not only celebrates two very important 50 th anniversary milestones, but also allows WD-40 Company to continue to support the automotive industry, which is a cornerstone of our business,” said Tim Lesmeister, vice president of marketing at WD-40 Company. “We are also proud to show off how our entire line of WD-40 Company products are used by hands-on mechanics, aftermarket professionals and auto enthusiasts everyday to get their job done right.”
