LMAO. Wow.... I think it was more than just "wanting a trans am."


I have to agree with everyone on the hatch, because from the side it looks like a stretched out Fiero...but from all other angles the car looks awesome.

Keep up the good work.

More power to you just seems like its a costly "transplant". Alot of work tho. Good luck.

Looks different but I kinda like it. Plus I am all for someone doing something DIFFERENT than the normal SS clone. If it were not for those who think outside the box the car community would just be bland. Make your car what you want since it is YOURS.

I really like it. I kind of like the rear hatch too, but the spoiler is the one thing that kind of sticks out from no where.

Hell yeah!!!


I always thought the Trans Am looked better up front and the Camaro had the better *** of the two. I can't wait to see this thing when it's finished. With all those skills, how about a Z06-esque fixed roof? You could use a convertible trunk and probably fab up the in between!


It's gonna be sick

I think the hatch adds great uniqueness to the car as it sits! The rear window would just make it blend in and look more like a Trans Am. kudos to ya man! but it needs a SS spoiler

When do you think you will paint the car?

Also, have you considered CME exhaust, or some type of other valence?

You have got to post the complete car in the "appearance and detailing" section when you're done!

probobly go into paint around may... i have another car i am building at the same time and would like to paint and complete together, it was flat black before i began, i will probobly do the same for now with some flat red or gray stripes, plus it gives all the body work time to shrink and do any pita things it will do, i am sure it will be fine though.

I would have liked to see the whole rear quarter panel flared out. Not just the lip flare. Either way it should look.... OK. Kudos on the ***** to do this.
