That looks nicer than the original Ute in my opinion.
I am not useless, I can still be used as a bad example!

I like it too, but the Holden Ute fits together better, the lines matchup...Dave

I'd drive that!
Oh wait, it's a Chevy so no i wouldn't but it's pretty cool. Now we just need a Mustang/Falcon UteLife is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming 'WOW What a Ride!'

I think it looks better than the stock Camaro. I think the proportions just look better with the Ute conversion.
I'm not sure if I like it better than the original Ute though. It's a tough call

according to Top Gear, the Holden Ute was faster around their test track than the Camaro was. i'm guessing it was probably because it's lighter and doesn't have those heavy fugly 20" wheels that the Camaro has.
