what do you think of this bird?

This was on someone's personal site. Had a huge list of power adders. Its an 82 bird for sale for $12,000.

What kind of Ground F/X are along under the door?

Pretty sweet car.

i like everything but the ground effects around the door, is it me or is the front rim larger than the back one? i think that looks weird, a wider rear is cool but a larger front rim just throws me off
later

The rear rim might not be smaller I dunno. It is a deep dish rim though.If it is a smaller rim he may have done it to fit a wider tire back there,never really heard of people doing that though.

Not the worst I've seen, would help if the scoop weren't black.

Its not that ugly guys. The only thing I don't like is the scoop. The color is unique, but I've seen worse.

I like it except the ground effets, pre '85 nose piece, and black scoop (should be body color)

I like the color, rims look like a drag set up, has a roll cage, harness's, and looks like maybe sport seats, wing is ok but its only a stock camaro wing.

This was the only picture the guy had. No motor pics. He had a long list of mods that were done to the car. Mostly engine mods.

I like the car except for the ground f/x and the big spoiler on the back. Otherwise I really think its pretty cool. I have seen worse though.

It looks ok. Not real bad. It kinda sits apart from the rest.
