\"Camaro<\/span>
\nYes, it’s a purse. On my blog. Bear with me here for a minute.
\nKim White was lucky to find an entire warehouse full of old unused auto seat fabric and bought the whole lot. Now, she uses it to make cool purses and handbags. Hey, I’m not a girl but what’s not to like about a back made from 1983 Camaro seats (in three color combos<\/a>)?
\nThe tragedy is that this fabric could have been used to fix up actual Camaro seats. Still, ain’t it cool?
\nIf the Camaro is a bit much, maybe the one below is better. It was scheduled to cushion your fanny while driving your 1974 Plymouth Fury. Then there’s the 1975 Gremlin bag<\/a>, the 1975 Pacer bag<\/a> and more<\/a>.
