3rd Gen Modded to look like 5th Gen
https://www.carscoops.com/2018/12/co...5th-gen-model/
Not something I would buy, but I can appreciate the work and quality of this car....
If it weren't for the stock rims, that car would catch some people off guard....
The body line that slants down from around the tail lights would give it away
I think they did a nice job...
Thoughts ???

We have a member here and on MIFB.com with a yellow Camaro who did that a year or two ago. I thought the look was good, and more Chevy corporate common (Citation, Malibu, early Cavalier) from back in the day than 5th gen.

Re: 3rd Gen Modded to look like 5th Gen
I'd rather see a 5th gen - or better yet a 6th gen - modified to look like a 3rd gen. 6th gen power and chassis with 3rd gen looks, then you'd really have something!

It's not bad. I actually kinda dig it.

Re: 3rd Gen Modded to look like 5th Gen
It looks like something. I wouldn't say it looks like a newer Camaro. I see design and style elements that remind me of every pony car fielded between 1965-1973. Parts remind me of the Camaro, Mustangs, Challenger, AMX... Looks well done, but too busy and the styling doesn't quite work. If it looked just a little worse, it could be a GM concept car from the early 2000's

I suspect drugs were involved here.

That's blasphemy, the third gen Camaro is visually a work of art. That thing is double ugly and the party responsible should be charged with crimes against humanity.

Re: 3rd Gen Modded to look like 5th Gen
Looks like a Camaro and in AMX javelin got together. Terrible idea, worse in execution. Speaking of execution, somebody should have. And this coming from somebody that Owned a fifth generation Camaro. Ended up back in a third GEN. Much better car

Re: 3rd Gen Modded to look like 5th Gen
See enough 5th gens...6th gens... Hell they look the same to me. GM quit making good looking Camaros in 1992. They just started drastically improving performance in 93 I will give them that.

Re: 3rd Gen Modded to look like 5th Gen
I was hoping the guy who bought the rights to IROC-Z would have transformed the car more like the Trans Am guys did.. Make a 2018 SS into an IROC with 800hp!
This thing looks like a Challenger to me..
