very weird thirdgen
ok i didnt know where to post this but i was reading my monthly car craft mag and ran across this pic of a thirdgen that someone put ALOT OF BODY TIME in to and it looks really weird but still kinda cool. makes me think of the batmobile. i couldnt find a pic of it online so i took a pic with my camera
next to the picture it says this. " we saw this at another recent show we cruised through. we didnt know what it was either untill we looked in the interior- it used to be a gen III camaro. we're not sure what it is now."

Well for one of those outrageous makeovers done to the camaro, this has to be the best. i really don't think it looks bad, that car was done right.

Re: very weird thirdgen
wow, those are some awesome fabrication skills. The detail in the work is amazing. You have to really understand what it took to get the car to this position to appreciate the art in it.
I'd like to see some pics of the inside!

The pictures you took in the grass don't look as bad as the ones in the Jalopnik link. It looks like it was taken out of a comic book or something.
