Very true. I think it's actually kinda cool, except for the windshield and back window. It's not something I would do, but still kinda cool lookin. I'd like to see it finished.

I remember seeing that car one time, at a car cruise out in the valley at Cruiser's.
I give the guy credit for doing something different with his car.
He likes it, that's all that matters.

I was thinking about all kinds of derogatory things to say about this car and then I scrolled down to Mr. TurboTA's response. I'll remain diplomatic and just agree with this comment. Well said, sir.

I really like the quarter windows as well. If those were put in a stock bodied 3rdgen I bet they'd look pretty good.

Alright... its wack.. reice, etc..etc.. with all the negative posts about how wack it is posted, can we move on to appreciating what he has pulled off ?

Lets look again at it beyond the initial first impression, and look at what he pulled off.

- Rear deck lid. That looks like glass

- Look at those rear side windows. They look like an idea i've once seen photoshop'd on here that seem UNFATHOMABLE.

Anyone remember this ?



- Molded front clip and GFX

As a whole, if you subtract the following, it would probably wouldn't get the responses it did here.

- remove/trim the bird beak
- remove the chrome wheel well trim
- remove the lowrider rims and white walls.
- have the designer determine whether its to be a bird or a snake as birds don't have fangs
- modify the window trim, make it less overbearing..

I definitely want to see this one when its done.

It looks more like the roof is grafted from a 1stgen.

I want quarter windows in my vert. I think it'd make the windows more appealing/smoother flowing when the top is down.

Those side windows are a nice look, would also help with the blind spots. I wonder if they roll down also that would be great. Wish I could get a up close look at them to see how he did it.

Ya know, if this thing were all black and had a huge wing, this would look like some freaky batmobile or something.

I personally like the quarter windows.

besides the quarter windows that he cut in, i see no evidence of real craftmanship here... the guy definitely has patience, but it doesn't seem to take much skill to do that... just alot of time.

i bet if he were to try that window mod without using body filler as a main component it wouldn't look so good.

i haven't done much bodywork

but give me 100 gallons of bondo and alot of time and i could do that too.

i'd like the quarter windows just to be subtley different and kill the blindspot for more relaxed driving, but i still want the car structurally sound, able to withstand daily abuse, and made of metal like it should be...

i don't think it meets the requirments.

To get that rearside window that way I think this is a merger between a gen 1 and 3. There is a 1968 or 69 Camaro they have put a thirgen front clip on I have seen it only a couple times I need to get a picture of it some time.
