Ive always liked the wide body kit. I'd like to see one in person though.

Wonder what a vert would look like with one.

Camaroguy18 · 03-10-2005, 07:58 PM

is it just me, or do the panels look like their different colors....like painted at seperate times and just dont quite match?

It looks like the drivers seat is different from the passenger.Cool car though

That looks pretty cool. I too would like to see that done on a vert.

i'm don't like it, just looks odd

FirebirdNYC · 03-11-2005, 10:43 AM

im not sure if i like it, it makes the doors look out of place

I think the wide body kits are pretty cool - and rarely have I seen it on a car that didn't have some other crazy stuff on it, like a weird spoiler, paintjob or wheels. So I like it

And as mentioned above - I have also always wanted to see a ragtop with this kit, as well as one customized somehow to work with the 91-92 gfx and a high-rise.

huh,
well its differnt, to buy that kit its 1k.but the doors look out of place.If you get into a accedent. Then you $hit out of luck. or go spend a arm and a leg to do the fiberglass because i dont think you can just buy a single finder or etc.. but i guess its pretty cool. no one else has it.

I've actually raced that kid and talked to him a little bit...He used to live down here in AZ...IIRC his dad owns a body shop so that explains the body kit...I raced him when he had the stock 305 CFI in it and killed him

That was over 2 years ago though when I still had my 86.

I have seen that widebody before and thats the first time I have seen one like that so clean. I dont like it too much though.

That's a stock '82 Lear/Siegler Conteur driver's seat, and it could have came with the car new....but the the non-matching upholstery fabric on the back seat makes me even question that.

In the '83-'85 versions, the passenger seat looked more like the driver's, albeit without the adjustability, and the interior had the "CAMARO, CAMARO, CAMARO" upholstery pattern copied from an early 80's Recaro seat.

i like the color...

MikeP91 · 03-11-2005, 09:20 PM

I've seen a couple other pictures of those. Most look disgusting in my opinion, but that is by far the nicest that i have seen. I still think i would rather just see a nice, clean car rather then one with a wide body kit on it.

First wide body that I like.
The black paint and the smoothed in spoiler hide the ill flowing lines of that body kit.

Don't want to go down a gravel road in that thing!
