Funnest thing I saw in a long time!

I know this will be shut down but I could not help post this. It reminds me of the van from dumb and dumber.

Lol, that is horriable. Looks like they slapped some cardboard on there. You can still see the Camaro rear end. That is really really UGLY!

That's a terrible base car for that design- it doesnt fit at all. There isn't even a picture of it assembled and painted.

I dont think I would have done it even if I got paid 5 grand to put that stuff on my car if I had one that it would fit... It would ruin a perfectly fine car.

Hey, it looks like what it is. A Camaro with parts stuck on it. A few grand over priced though.

Ive seen one of those c5 conversions in person, and they look sweet, but IMO the laid back windshield and modern interior just dont look quite right
