There's no greater way for General Motors to memorialize our nation's history than by paying to cover a Camaro SS with a mural so eagle-emblazoned and patriotic it's like the love child of Lee Greenwood and Chuck Norris. These colors do run — fast.

Artist Mickey Hart created the Chevy Camaro American Pride on commission from GM last summer as a one-off for its show car division. After it debuted on Sept. 11 — no, we're not kidding, that's when it debuted — GM has since rolled out the Camaro to scores of regional auto shows, where real Americans could gape in slack-jawed awe at our nation's historical majesty rendered by airbrush on a sports car built in Canada.
Walk through the gallery above for more commentary on this incredibly festooned muscle car.
