check this car out

what where they thinking? why would you do that?

 

Does it come with the pimp hat?

 

that is one elegant ride!

 

I'm Rick James B*tch!!!!

 

looks like an excaliber rip off kit car. Neat lookin, low mileage too! I would definately change the interior, and I'm curious to know what the trunk looks like...

 

First off, why the hell couldn't the guy get a whole Camara shot of the whole car?

Aside from the "low" miles even the description is wrong. Its a FIREBIRD, not Camaro. see the dash/gauges?

 

the one cool thing about that is , could you imagine the looks on peoples faces if you were doin a burnout with that thing. It would be funny as hell to see it do a burnout. But other than that it doesnt looks that good bc of the door and the piller are stock .

 

that thing is UGLY!!! they did a good job on it but OMG, ewwww.

 

Its so ugly that its funny. I would drive it just for shock value. I think I would be laughing to hard and crash it though.

 

you can't really tell that from the pictures... the interior coulda been swapped out. the only possible way (unless you can get it from the VIN)of telling what that car used to be has been hidden; the bodyline between the sail panel has been bondoed over....
the sail panel of that.. thing..
**disclaimer** this thirdgen factoid learned from 82firebirdTA

 

"Give Dolemite back the pimp cane"

 

Just check the VIN#, then you will know for sure.

 

Uhhhh... AFAIK and someone verify this if I'm wrong, but Camaros and Firebirds have the EXACT same lines on the sail panels on the outside.

[edit] I looked at some pics on readers rides and sure enough, it looks like maybe there is a difference. [edit]

 

What did the five fingers say to the face?



SLAAP!

Not something you see everyday....

 

i would bet any sum of money and my left nut that they are different!

 

The sail panels are indeed very different. Line up a firebird and a camaro side by side and it will jump out and shake your hand.

The firebird tail is about 2" wider overall than a camaro tail width, and this starts right at the sail panel thus there is a very pronounced body line on the bird sail panel. HTH!

 

Ya learn something new everyday. I guess that only makes sense, considering how much wider the Firebird tail it than the Camaro's.

 

Some of the interior was swapped cause it has camaro seats.....

 

what would make you even think of doing that? whould anyone here really buy it? i think it would be really hard to drive

 

Hmm.. here is what i got when I ran the VIN#

Here are the results for your query on: 1GMDU06E8VD165590

Mabye I did something wrong.

 

I ran it earlier but it gave me engine L98/B2L... go figure

 

they make a "kit car" like that for a "camaro?" HTH , that would be way too much fabrication from removal and installation.
what a perfectly good waste of a camaro. NG

 

Well,one of us is doing it wrong. Anybody else tried.

 

Thats what I was thinking

 

Oh, man, that thing is awesome! It combines the smooth style of a 40s Rolls Royce with the (I presume) muscle of a 3rdgen. I love it! :hail: :hail: :hail:

On a side note, I can't believe people actually list cars without any sort of description whatsoever. If I'm selling one of my cars I write up a glowing, but truthful and extremely detailed overview of the car. I run down all the pertinent facts....because I know I wouldn't buy a car online without knowing every single detail.

I guess he figures he can't go wrong with his "Here's my neat car. Want it?" eBay ad.

 

Hey not my thing,but you gotta admire is creativeness and craftsmanship.

 

I tried it and got this:

obviously this is not a completely true vin or a mistyped vin

 

Hey thanks!

 

i feel myself starting to cry...

 

the ugliest an most horrific third gen i have ever seen.
it is digusting and downright depressing!

oh well i guess it would be an interesting sleeper.

 

I think someone has posted something similar before. I believe there was another ebay auction with a similar car that had a link to another site with more info. I've seen a webpage on those kits it is a third gen.

 

Y'all needs ta not HATE....rather APPRECIATE the finely crafted automobile!

 

Yeah i have definately seen that car or the kit before online somewhere. For sure not my kind of car!!!!!

 

i hate it , kinda , WTF, i dunno what anyone was thinking there, or was someone thinking?.... at anyrate, some one put time and money in to it for that i gave them a thumbs up, but why the hell did you pick a thirdgen of all cars?

 

Here is what carfax had to to say about it. I do believe the VIN number is for a minivan.

 

i knew it would bug you if i didnt mention that i learned it from you!
there have been worse....

 

Hey there's a guy here in town who has one of those. I puke every time I see it. His is actually built on a Z28, but still......dammmmmmmn. He's a really nice guy so it's hard to imagine why he could do such a horrific thing to a Camaro.

BTW he also has a Porsche 911 that has a blown and nitroused 383 sticking through the hood, so he can't be all bad!

 

What did the five fingers say to the face?



What a waste of a third gen???

 

there's plenty of thirdgens around, nothing wrong with cutting up a few, as long as they're L03 cars

 

My stock L03 is like 4x as fast as your L98

 

I've actually seen one of these "kits" on an early C4. Never knew could could fubar a thirdgen with one.

 

yeah, anyway, not an L98 anymore. rings went south so I put an LB9 in it (its what I had laying around) so you do have a chance
