Well the 3rd Gen idea just got opened up..I saw one with a complete 4th Gen Interior Swap in it..everything minus the Door Panels and Steering Column.

It's one of the guys in the Conversions section, 1986 Camaro..

On the 3rd gen note, the number one reason I've always disliked the 3rd gens is because of their super 80's interior...other than that, I do kind of like the exterior styling. That'd be a thought...

then again, around here, lots of people but different motors in 3rd gens...so it wouldn't be THAT unique...

I like the classic muscle car idea...an early/mid 70's camaro would be cool IMO...never see any of those that are too fast, and it's stil an Fbody...
