Another dream... another idea... Has anybody created a ThirdGen SS :hail: .... no? yes? Im talking emblems, decals, rims, engines, trannies, hood scoops, fat f**kin tires!!

damn...i need to quit dickin around :lala: and swap my engine....

 

close.....

 

ooooo..... daddy like.. haha.... Needs some SS badges

 

Thinkin about doing it to mine..but..still not sure..

 

so...like...wanna gimme your car? thats pretty badass bro... loves the 91s

 

You guys need to stop postin them ss hoods. I was gonna get 1 and just got a iroc hood cause i got a good deal. Now everytime i see 1 i get pissed off cause it looks awsome.

 

well if its consolation to you speed freak, i greatly prefer an IROC hood to that SS lookin one! i love my stock IROC hood.

 

as far as stock hoods go.... i think the best hoods are 1991-92 Z28 hoods with the louvers are the best lookin ones. IROC hoods are pretty cool too though...

 

I too love the 91-92 Power Blister hoods....i mean....thats what my 91 Z28 came with...I ended up getting $250.00 out of the stock hood. I'm just kind of creating my own monster...only ONE other person around here has an SS hood....so..I want people to know exactly who it is when they see/hear me coming.... .....plus...the fender louvers will set it off too...

 

My car aspires to be just like yours chefdan.

 

YEh those hood blisters r exspensive like 145 a peice or around there. The louvers were like 70 a peice.

 

really?? sweet....those kind of comments make all that hard work worth while i appreciate dirty rob

 

Maybe I'm just insane, but I LOVE my flat RS hood. I had the louvered hood on my '85 Z and it was a PITA to keep dirt and debris out from under and around the plastic pieces. My hood has a smoother appearance IMHO.

 

I am planning on making mine into one... eventually.

 

yeah youre insane...its cool though you have to be to drive a Maro :sillylol: ... really though...im sick of my flat boring hood. a freind of mine at my school has a burgundy 92 Z28 with the blisters... those things just give the car a bulky, sporty, badass in your face appearence.... (in my humble opinion) and i want that look and that hood.

 

I'd get an SS hood...but do you have any idea how hard it is to match Cherry Black paint??

 

Just had to chime in here. Here's a pic of my '89 "RS-SS" 'vert!

 

looks clean 89 drop top like the white painted irocs

 

Thanks Spdfrk! The pic dosen't do them justice though, plus they were dirty when I snapped the pic. You can hardly even tell that they are polished too, usually, you can use them to shave in!! LOL!

 

Youre car would look really cool with some grey ZR-1s

 

I want my ss hood and my z-28 high rise spoiler ...and I dont care what anyone says I will put it on my lil 2.8 Liter car! lol, I'll just get personal plates that say JST4LKS

 

yeah i saw your pics... pretty clean... especially since its a teenaged car

 

Thanx man, I take as good of care as my car as possible...this summer hopefully it will get the hood and spoiler and painted. I dont think I've seen any pics of yours, can you post some?

 

Ok so back to the real topic

If GM did make a real thirdgen SS what does everyone think it would have over a 91-92 Z28 or Iroc???

My idea of a GM styled Third gen SS would have a 275hp 350 (with vette heads), slightly beefed up rear end and trans, special badging, interior, paint scheme/colors, maybe a functional blister or louver hood, Sub Frame Connectors, better suspension........actually now that I think of it a Third Gen SS would basically be the Camaro version of the Thridgen Firehawk, which I think would be better then what I just listed.

 

hmmm.....factory thirdgen SS....
91-92 RS/Z28 style GFX
High Rise Spoiler
ZR-1 17 x 9 rims
Z28 Functional Hood Louvers
SS Badging on GFX, Bumper, Front grille, shifter ****, Dash panel and gauge cluster
T-Tops, Convertible, or Sunroof
LT1
Headers
Dual Exhaust
SLP Center Exhaust
6 SPD Man. or 5 Spd Auto 4L60E
Borg Warner 9 bolt
All I can think of right now.

 

Hmm 3rd gen SS?
Old pic, the car now has 85-90 T/A side effects.

 

I wouldn't do that vanity plate since you can also word it out to be "Just for LICKS"

 

almost like my buddies plates,

 

Didn't Prime have SS badges on his yellow IROC? I remember seeing SS badges on a yellow camaro...

 

Bwwahahahaha THE POWER OF SEARCH I knew it was prime with the SS emblems,


Whew I almost didnt find these pics, some of his previous posts had red x's.

 

there were some pictures of camaros with ss hockey stripes and they looked pretty damn nice id want it

 

 

 

hockey stripes anyone?

 

I will have an SS hood tomorrow when UPS gets here! Can't wait to get it put on and painted.

I might just have to make my car an SS. I have been wanting to buy some new rims anyway, so I might just look into some SS wheels.

 

Nice! well i dunno about UPS sometimes but... oh well...

SS wheels huh? in my opinion i think the best lookin SS rims for a fourth gen are the 5 spoke ZR-1 rims... The 10 spoke SS rims from i think 00-01 SS look OK, but thirdgens were made for 5 spokes... just my 2 cents.

 

Totally what i want to eventually happen to my car, I think me and 84camroZ28 would probably end up with the same car if we both could do what we want..accept mine would still be green and not have a wing. Putting 18 in C5 wheels on it (maybee TT II's) and want to put LS1/T56 in it with 4th gen rear. If chevy actually made one tho Im guessing it would be about the same as the firehawk...since thats how they are now..or i guess where (sniffle sniffle) Ronal rims, probably SS hood like the ASCD, SLP...

 

Im not really to fond of the SS Hoods....Just my opinion....

~RJ~

 

BOO this man!.... BOOO!

just playin... yeah it only looks cool, i think, on the 91's & 2's cuz of the high rise spoiler and GFX... and only if its functional! i like the 91-2 blisters on the hood better though... i dunno ... as long at it can leave a stang its fine by me...

 

I agree, I'm totally a fan of the blisters. I added the hood blisters to a stock flat hood.




(Note: I have since removed the rear window louvers and tinted the windows...)

 

I raced a Grey 91-92 Camaro on the freeway, he had SS decals, nothing else tho...i wonder if that was anyone on the board, in socal

 

howd you get the blisters on? did you cut the hood at all or just placed them on top or what?

 

3 small holes for each blister. They were sealed and made sure that there will be no rust that could occur. I have heard horror stories of people who flat mounted the blisters and they flew off... I wanted to make sure these bad boys were secured. If you pull the fire blanket off the inside of the hood you will see the place were the IROC lovers would have gone.

 

Emblems, Rims, Hood, Stripes.

Since I use to own a '69 SS Pace car this '86 became my new SS. Actually there was a SS third gen but it was a aftermarket car sold with GM approval thru Choo Choo Customs. Just had a few dress up items but no new horses or anything.

I was going to get the SS hood but got a deal on the ASCD Turbo I could not pass up. Since the next paint job with ghost flames is coming early summer I am thinking of putting the blisters on and removing the louvers but maybe not. Both look good to me and I like the SS hood. In fact only hood i don't like is the flat RS/base hood. UGH! Anyway i got the badges and get lot's of looks and comments but few want to race and see if i am sleeper(which i am) or for show. Especially the Ford/**** crowd.

 

those are sweet!!!

located this site, that sells them':

Cant wait to get it painted. Dont know what else I am going to do to the exterior.

Opinions?
