Nice ride but I think the idea of a CE is keeping it a CE, not changing it up

i think he kept it CE enough, minor changes dont ruin them, i could see if he took off the decals or somthing, but its very nicely done

Looks good it stands out. Did the ZR1 wheels come in that?

Sharp car, but I think I like the stockers on there better.

I like that roll bar thing, helps the looks of convertibles in my opinion

Ditch the roll bar. ZR1s look cool.

Roll bar is the ONLY way I'd roll in a Vert, personally I hate the look of verts, especially f bods. The Formula/Firebird style wing sucks in the first place and having it on a vert is just that much worse.

I was never a fan of any kind of vert, but the bar helps A LOT. I'm also not a fan of zr1's on anything, especially not over the stockers on a CE. Not a fan of the black CETA bumpers either. But, there is more appeal in this vert over other f-body ones I suppose.

Awesome looking....but I'm biased.

I must know the owner cause he has one of my front plate decals. But the car doesn't look familiar. I remember a couple guys asking about the light bar for the vert on cfb. hmmm....time to investigate!

You know it looks clean definitely, but I just don't dig chrome wheels on the CETAs....I feel like especially with the vert having a black cloth top you gotta go with black wheels to even it out. Also, whats with that roll bar, if it was more curved rather than square-angled it would look far better.

I'm with you guys though, the formula/firebird tail drives me nuts -- I think its not good looking at all. Has anyone ever modded a FB vert to have the regular coupe/TA tail?
