Forda Mustang is probably Ford Mustang.
Pontiaca Firebird is probably Pontiac Firebird.
That's about as good as I can figure...
Congratulations, Kandied. That car is definitely one of my favorites, and I can't wait to see what you're putting together next.

I think it's awesome that that car got so much attention and featured in the magazines it did, because all the readers who see it get to see just how much potential a thirdgen has and as a result inspires them to start there own buildup. Very nice

ill just do it now lol
from what i see...
the seller didnt want to lower his already steep price. 18 months after purchase, jeffs camaro was destroyed by huligans who destroyed the paint and the interior. this was the moment that inspired jeff to modify his beloved z28.
the destroyed interior and exterior was restored to its original factory state. jeff decided to change the paint to be more spectacular. the camaro was painted candy red. the owner also increased the power by installing a cold air intake made by SLP, a better exhaust, and also a NOS kit with a power increase of 150HP. These modifications.... (page ends)

Its just that so many people see third gens and think like almost nothing, trashy, *******, beat, junk cars....
Seeing ur car kandy makes everyone really see the potential its amazing.
I think i have a very nice example of a thirdgen and i drive so much everyone in town knows and sees my car...not one person has ever said anything bad about it...there are so much potential in these cars...when i drive i point out every thirdgen firebird and camaro...even if trashy i see the potential i dont view them as junk...my freinds will laugh and think there pieces of ****...and ive got them to really see the potential it can have by looking at my car and they agree...
Whatever i think u got the point...your car is amazing and always will be one of or the best example of a thirdgen
Oh and ya by the way 5.0 stangs...GTs Cobras styling can just never compare. Dont get me wrong i really do like 5.0s for there sound alone and how easy they are to make fast for cheap but ive seen like top of the line examples of 5.0s, modded, customized, stock appering and they just still look so much worse then a third gen...
I think its easy enough to say that the thirdgen is prolly one of the coolest looking cars out of the 80s...even 80s vettes are ugly i think compared to the camaros.

That said, when it comes to the history, and present position, of Corvettes, late 80s, early 90s are really lacking my opinion.. Not that they are ugly cars, just that for corvettes, they don't fit. TGO Supporter

no they aren't associated with primedia in anyway that i'm aware of. here is their link after a few hours of trying to rework their publishing sig.

and dude come on a 91-92 z28 stock vs a 91-92 vette...no comparison
i say the Z28 and i think itd get more looks too.
haha my opinion though...
its so easy to make the appearance of a camaro make it look like 5x better
i dont see much to do to a C4 vette....rims...? spoilers look ugly...cant really lower it much...dont see many aftermarket hoods..
ya just my opinion

I started reading it myself(in Polish). I was born in Poland and immigrated many years ago, before the wall went down. I think its great to see the F-Body worshiped in Polan and Europe. My reading skills are a little rusty though. Polish or English it is sweet car and a benchmark for many car fanatics.
PS Car club from Poland tells us more about it.
