Look where I found this thirdgen.

I was watching Vanilla Ice's video and spotted this thirdgen in the background. Looks to be an 85-86 SE Firebird.







Note: I was watching the video because it is a really funny.

That Camaro on the right is one of the mid second gens 75-78 or so and is base model. I did not mention or show the entire pic becuase it is not thirdgen related as the sticky frowns upon non thirdgen related material on the boards.

LOL. At least Vanilla Ice never went broke and he was always happy when he performed. Sure, he was lame, but at least he was cool enough to put F-bodies in his video.

It can't be a 75, 76, or 77. It doesn't have the big steel bumpers.

I'm not all that familiar with the 2ndgen changes so I guess its the 78-81, but it definately doesn't look like a Z28.

Vanilla's infamous "Mustang 5.0 drop-top" because all the "rock man lovers driving Lamborghinnis."




I saw the skit on In Living Color when Jim Carey played Vanilla Ice making a spoof on his video. It was funny, but not as funny as the actual video. LOL LOL LOL. I'm going to have that watch that video again because it's so funny.

i dunno about that last one, looks to me like a 2nd gen Camaro due to the steeper rake of the windshield. might also be a Mustbang...
