He may be a good body man but he still couldn't get rid of the infamous "dent" on our cars where the bumper and fender meet!

I'm almost positive that it's a 6 cyl. I like the roof though, I wouldn't mind having something like that on my car.

So was the '89 Anniversary. But it was the fastest and best handling Trans Am ever until the LS1. (and it was still better handling, off the showroom floor)

Just sayin'.

The roof would be cool if he cut the entire bar off, and replaced it with a C/F shell over a cage. Otherwise it's just basically a sticker. And it actually adds weight. Sorta like adding a fake exhaust tip or something.

You guys have to understand thast the look in his country, if they looked at our cars they would think what we do is ugly.

But the car needs to be toned down, other wise its a cool idea. It just to much, he over detailed the car and it has to much hanging off it.


But def there was some great work put into it

It would be awesome if it wasn't for the weird nose, dumb rims, huge wing, and cheap looking tail-lights.
