It probably would be possible but only with custom fabrication on the back end of the front fenders. I think a TA with a Camaro Front or vice versa would look kind of funny. Who knows.

Wouldn't you have to change the entire front clip AND the doors since they blend into the fenders? This means you'd also have to change some of the stuff in the interior for it to look right.

Doesn't seem like it's worth the effort, but if you want to be different, I guess that's a good way to go about it.

The front body lines dont even match up. I cant believe any body would think doing that would make there car look better. Just plain wrong IMO.
