Damn... thats in my home town.. I've seen that car too. I think he's part of a low Rider club called "slow and low" . I respect the car for its contribution to the community as a show car. We should all do the same. Versatility in our vehicles breathes life in availability of parts and the expansion of the miniscule third gen aftermarket.

never understood...why to a camaro?

maybe cause camaros got cool looks and he wanted some different from a monte carlo...who knows.

Anyway that driver seat is pimp...the rest of the interior looks pretty pimped out too.

Id pimp it.

what?

a lot of work, agreed. however alot of things have been overlooked and it's far from a show piece. had they gone the extra mile reguardless of taste and personal interest maybe. that car is maybe half way done to consider show worthy.

still interesting though.

who'd want to have to take their shoes off every time they get in the car?? I wouldn't like that.. it would irritate me.

I do, however, like the exterior colour.

I like the engine bay...but....It looks like it belongs in a different car.

Why would they go to all that trouble with the interior and the paint, and the engine bay doesn't match?
