Can anyone Identify this car?

Alright...

I just finished a round of email with the webmaster over at Chevyworld, and he sent me a few more pics. Can anyone identify the bodykit on this vehicle. Ken from Chevyworld thought it might be a Tojan kit on a camaro, but the hood and nose are radically different (I would think if this were the case, we'd at least see the ugly, pug noseed hood). He also mentioned that someone he knows seems to recall having seen one of these before, with the word CARRAB on the back (right where Tojan is on the pontiac).

That's all the info I have on this car, and it isn't much to go on...

It WAS a Camaro, now it is a POS.

Anyway, that looks like a custom body kit. Some guy probably made the peices himself, so there probably is no kit to make a similar car.

EDIT: Or it could be a real kit that I have just never seen before, so I could be full of ****.

thats a banshe body prototype. the 1st design was in 64. then again in the mid 70s on firebirds. unsure on the 1st year design on the camaros. that body almost looks like a tojan. the nose is definetly a re-worked 70s vette nose.

another look at that picture... thats definetly from the same company who put out the tojan. i guess its the tojan for camaros. come ot think of it, i have a tojan hatch and tail light assembly in my gurage, i'll have to go look at it again.
