Re: Whose car is this?

Here's what's called crossbreed, good old boys style. There's a camaro front end attached to a pickup truck at 1:30 and it's not an ElCamino I can't find the static picture so here's a video.

Re: Whose car is this?

Holy **** batman.Someone actually did that and thought it turned out so well they should take a picture and tell people about it.It doesnt even sit straight or level.It droops horribly.That should have been destroyed before anyone could see it ever exsisted.Hopefully it`s for a joke.

The only thing I really dont like is the mustang-ish front end look. But really, this car was probably built when the new mustang was the only source of those retro-style headlights. If the new camaro was out yet, that would have helped.
It's not mustang-ish...It is from a mustang.

Re: Whose car is this?

Yeah,carslike that are fairly common around here.I`ve seen a couple of them with nerf bars,or whatever they`re called,that go on trucks for a step up.Picture a buick regal or olds cutlass with nerf bars on it.My DD is a 4x4 chevy 1500.Tires are 285/75/16,I think they`re 31" tires.Guys in caprice classics looking me straight in the eye at a redlight.

Re: Whose car is this?

This reminds me of a similar 1/2 & 1/2 I saw in Newport Beach years ago but this one was a 1st gen Mustang front & 1st gen Camaro rear. I didn't know what to think when I saw it, but it all blended together and looked stock. These aren't my kind of cars but I'm sure they took 100's of hours to complete so for that I give them credit. Later.

Re: Whose car is this?

Who ever did this is probably so ashamed and been so flamed that he/she has posted "acting" like one of the criticizers, and not wanting to announce its theirs. :P haha

but imo This is probably the worst insault to camaros :[ it makes me wanna cry innocent dead baby blood tears. -sigh-

regards,
Timinsk

did anyone else notice the camarotruck has the front end angled violently down? I'm guessing he either wanted to join our brother hood of scraped chin spoilers or that front clip sagged on its own in a suicidal frown

Re: Whose car is this?

I actually think I would like it if not for the hood, hood looks out of place, the back and side look good, and I think the front would look decent even with a different hood, these cars with no front clips look a LOT like early 60s muscle, and anyone thats had theirs off knows what I am talking about, lol. That car is definitly having an identity crisis though, reminds me of the guy that put a camaro front clip, hood and fenders on his car, I actually thought it was a camaro with firebird parts but it was the other way around, haha.
