I don't even hafta find the original post that you quoted to know who you are referring to.

4th gen front sheet metal under a 3rd gen nose....flames....That would be Fatal88 (here on TGO).

I got to see Fatal on display when it had the 4th gen interior, but still sported the TPI. Even then, the car was absolute show quality. It had the same flames on it. It take BIG BALLS to hack up a show car, and do the 4th gen sheet metal swap under the hood! So, it was hacked, cut, welded, and reassembled, while it had the flame job.

Fagtal88 pre-LS1

Looking at my old pics, it appears the flames weren't just redone either. Same flames.

Fatal88 & Neil are the 2 most sheet metal modded cars on TGO. Sinister is nice, no doubt, but paint is just a spray away. Fatal88 & Neil are in a whole different class. Combine the 2 & you have THE ULTIMATE 3RD GEN, so far. I can think of a coupleof more tweaks that could be done..C'mon lottery!

Re: Purdiest 3rdGen I've ever seen!

the first grey Camaro listed from all the way back in 2004 looks like Gunny's who used to post on here. To the idiot who posted about Boyd riding his segway into the shop because he was too lazy to walk, you might think before you make inane comments like that. Boyd had advanced diabetes that made walking difficult and painful. I'm not a real Boyd fan, but you might be a little bit informed before dissing him for something like that.
