It wasn't near as bad as I thought from the thread title.. and the workmanship looks to be very good.

Would I do it? no.. but I have to give credit to people who at least TRY to do something different.

The back doesn't look too bad.. did ya know the original Panther concept car had round "second gen like" tail lights?

Don't like the front turn signals.. look "tacked on"..

Interesting...

69' front grille/rear quarter, C5 door handles, 70 tail panel...this thing rocks lol

[NOT A TA]

I like it! Man thats a lot of work!

[bobbaganoosh]

The only thing I don't like about it are the different year fenders. It looks kinda wierd with the rounded fender opening in the front & a squared off one in the rear. I do like the second gen tail panel.

[shmoov69]

That thing has a TON of work done to it to make it look like it flows. Buuut........those freaking quarters are HIDEOUS with the fronts being round! Looks like a freaking morphodite! I could live with the rest, but just not those.
And I just can't figure out why people STILL paint headers, especially on nice high dollar cars!

[WS6]

looks good but what's with the cheaply coated headers? Hell they don't even look ceramic coated.

[negcreep]

I can give a credit to the effort and the man hours it took to get it to that point. However it looks like there are some loose ends that didn't get enough attention. The front bumper and grill transition area looks to be one of those areas. To each his own I guess.

I like it but needs the 69 fenders and doors, the rear looks sweet the exhaust reminds me of porsche kinda iffy on that and not a fan of the blowers stickin out the hood. overall Id drive it.

[southernfriedcj]

As clean as that car is I'm amazed that the underside wasn't detailed/restored. Not my cup of tea.

[Mr.VENGEANCE]

fenders aside..

and weird that im saying this..

but it doesnt look THAT bad.. coulda been pretty cool in a wierd way..

change the front fenders and doors.. better wheels.. loose the front bumper.. loose the blower.. and you might have something kinda interesting..

but hell.. im high.

[RobM]

blowers out of the hood are cool in their own right i just think they are out of style right now.

I dont think the car is half bad. Major body mods on muscle cars which are already nice looking never really did it for me though

[RobM]

is that roll bar just a main hoop??

[79TA01]

is that roll bar just a main hoop??

Definitely just looks like the main hoop....

[wantahertzdonut]

I'd prefer it still looked like a Firebird but I still like it.

BUT you'd think with all the work done to the body that they would have done a better job with the dash. This has "hillbilly hack" written all over it:


I'd hate to stare at this nighmare every time I drive.

[68Formula]

I wish people would stop doing this junk to Firebirds.

[6'9"Witha69]

The quality looks good, but still the car is the posterchild for saying no to acid.

[hoosiergta]

I was going to complain about a pontiac that looks like a chevy but.....I basiclly have a chevy with a pontiac title but from the
factory .....( L98 chevy motor) so I guess I won't be throwing stones .
lol Then again my fenders are from the same vintage!
