Just saw something really odd...

So I pull into the gas station and see this old beat up third gen camaro with an after market piece of crap hood (complete with pins). the thing was in sorry shape. So I go in pay for my gas and come out right as the guy is leaving. he turns to get on the road and the whole back half of the car was a third gen FIREBIRD!!! I was like wthck the guy had a camaro front and a firebird rear I couldn't decide what it was originally lol!!! Has anyone else seen something like this?

Yes this has been done before. There was a guy who lived 2 houses down from this girl I was messing around with who had a 91-92Formula and added the older style camaro fenders and front bumper cover. It must have been wrecked in the front or something because from the doors back it looked like it was a really nice clean car. Camaro parts killed the look, ugly.

Re: Just saw something really odd...

There are SEVERAL threads about Cambirds.... : TGO & you'll likely find 90% of whatever you see "new" as something that has been done numerous times.

Remember, TGO has 10 years worth of info built up, do there isn't much that hasn't been seen or discussed before, short of LS1/NEW products.

Re: Just saw something really odd...

OK, enough about incest. Thats all a cambird is. They are hideous. I was looking around craiglist a week ago and saw one for sale. Its ridiculous.

But yeah, if its been done before, then its already been discussed on TGO. Nothing new.
