3rd gens at car show

hey i went to an indoor car show this weekend. there were only 3 third gens there, which im suprised because it was a rather small car show

insane big block supercharged camaro:


1983 camaro with molded 85 gfx and front fascia (not that appealing IMO)






there was a 92 teal metallic RS but i didnt get any pics of it. it was nice, 14k miles, very clean. it kinda pissed me off because it was totally stock and my car would look better in its place lol


trying to pass this off as a third gen.... (just cause i LOVE C4's)

the show was in Indianapolis, IN. it was called "world of wheels" or something like that. there was some silver hot rod made by chip foose there (i personally think those cars look lame but oh well). it was cool that it was all indoors, but that made it kind of small. im glad i went though

notice the 1sr gen camaro emblem on the 83 in front of the door on the right?

is that proper? i guess it doesn't matter, it isn't stock anyways.

I would like the blue one with an RS or billet grill better. the mesh in there looks ghetto and with everything smoothed there needs to be something happening to make it exciting. Other than that those cars are friggin sweet.

i like the molding job, it looks good. but it would be better as entirely blue and she needs a little help under the hood to be a true show car.

the silver one looks like one FUN ride

Make sure you post the pictures from next year's show when you can see all the cracks that developed where the steel fenders were molded to the urethane bumper.
