Wild Chevy Camaro Concept Named Relentless Could Come To Life

From its stance, to the paint, to the wings, to the engine, this is one wild Chevy Camaro rendering. Now, it looks like it may actually get built in real life.
The concept was originally created by Dom Höst, a U.S.-based 3D designer, chassis fabricator, and rat rod builder who goes by the handle Altered Intent (@altered_intent). The Chevy Camaro rendering was created for Cody Kleen, a custom car builder at Charlies Custom Creations, and it looks absolutely nuts.
In a recent post to social media, Höst announced that Kleen was working with several big names to “make this insane concept come to life,” including Bowler Performance Transmissions, Wegner Automotive, and Design Engineering, Inc. All this sounds quite promising.
The concept looks to build out the classic Chevy Camaro lines into an ultra-aggressive show machine peppered with racecar themes. The front end is punctuated by an extended front splitter that juts out from the lower bumper by what looks like more than foot, leading back to massively flared wheel arches housing large multi-spoke wheels.
Of course, we can’t forget the plus-sized supercharger sticking up out of the hood, which fits the over-the-top theme quite well. We’d hope for at least four-figures in terms of output.
Running our eyes down the side of the vehicle, we spot a set of flat side skirts, which suggest that this thing has a flat underbody tray as well. The tail of the vehicle terminates in a massive dual-plane wing, and while it’s hard to make out, the interior is equipped with what appears to be a set of Recaro racing buckets and a roll cage.
Finally, the whole shebang is painted in bright turquoise and slammed right onto the pavement. We also have to mention the ultra-deep-dish wheels in back and stretched rear rubber.
The build is vaguely reminiscent of the Japanese Bosozoku car tuning subculture, which is characterized by oversized aero bits, fenders, and exhaust treatments. Whether or not the designer did this intentionally is unknown.

Looks like something designed by a child.
“Camero?” How about “Bizarreo.” F-o-r-d has done a much better job of capturing the essence of the original (‘67-‘68) Mustang. If GM wants to appeal to the “Hot Wheels-Radical Custom” crowd I’m all for it but remembering the butchering of the iconic “GTO” nameplate, market it under a different name.
A true waste of pen and ink
On-screen pixels, actually.
Looks like a second-generation Javelin.
That’s the first thing that came to my mind!
More money than sense.
LOL. “….insane concept….” is right. Only a lunatic would draw—much less actually build—this monstrosity.
Copying the Hoonigan?
Can you say Mad Max?
It would be great here in Montreal as a street sweeper. That car would die with our humongous amount of potholes. Lots of speedbumps also.
Can you say puke?
I’m getting tired of all the 1st gen Camaro love. I get it, the 1st gen IS iconic, but at this point everyone and their brother has done a 1st gen build. Just take a look at Mecum, Barrett Jackson, SEMA, etc. Two generations of Camaro (5th & 6th) based on 1st gen styling. It’s played out. Time for GM to move away from 1st gen styling and either evolve the styling or reach back to some iteration of 2nd, 3rd or 4th gen design. AND it’s time for custom builders to move on as well as 1st gen builds are no longer unique. Kudos to Detroit Speed and Hoonigan for some recent 3rd gen builds and showing creativity and appreciation for other generations of the Camaro line
I am Cody keen the builder that is actually building the relentless Camaro. Love or hate the story behind it is one of hard work and honor. I went from being a homeless veteran and single father to running Charlie’s custom creations and also building my dream build on the weekends. This build is about coming from nothing and finding it in yourself to be something more than anyone could ever imagine. I appreciate all the support from fellow builders and car lovers. And for the haters, keep on trying cause iv heard it all before 🤘 stay hard
