Another Camaro Firebird Hybrid.....

looks pretty decent, as far as assembly goes. I don't know if I like the idea or not.

Its pretty cool to see it actually done.

Right... a non turbo v-6 trans am... that will be the day...

It was extremely well done, but it just has an oddness to it.
And by the looks of it, the front clip still has the camaro emblem thing... super cheesey.

In order for him to get the front camaro section he would have to take the fendors, front bumper impact stuff, bumper cover, and hood.

Not sure if i like it or not, the jury is still out.

I guess my main concern would be why would someone even do that. They are both great cars by themselves, its kinda like inbreeding(no offense intended to anyone who may be inbred

Well... If you liked the 'Bird interior and cool taillights, but you liked the 'Maro nose and gfx, it would be easier to put the Camaro parts on the Bird then the other way around, which is what I was going to do before I decided to get a 4th gen interior. That, or maybe he'd a body man that's tryin to be tricky.
I don't know; why'd ya ask me?! jk

putting a camaro and firebird together is a bad idea.

I like it actually. I think its the color that helps too.

I guess it would be harder to do the bird front and camaro rear, which I think would look bad.

It still seems odd because its not everyday you come across a firemaro.

i wouldn't mind putting firebird fenders with vents on my camaro, or adding a ram air hood (aftermarket) that they make for our cars. but i do want to get a daytona hood, which would be SWEET
