That thing is bad ass. If I had a 3rd gen, that car would be my inspiration (yeah, no originality here).

Nice car.
Some one has a little bit of Saturday night circle track in there blood.Building cars or any project must be fun first. If not it turns into a job.
We build cars for the fun and enjoyment of it, it is a family time things.
So if the fun stops, the build stops.

I like everything except for the stripped interior. It makes it too much of a race car to me but that's just my 2 cents!

I think it is one of the nicest third gens around.

That is funny! I'm hoping that some of the other jaw dropping 3rd gens are doing what I feel Nick intended on doing... ruffling feathers and getting fresh submissions. Originally Posted by mpozzi

I know I would rather have my car featured in CP than HRM just due to the fact the magazine is geared towards like minded (maybe) enthusiasts of camaros, than disco vans, tractor seat equipped "rat" rods, and other types of readers that don't care about how "Cool" my car is.

Looks like ducting from the bumper vents to force air threw the rad. Originally Posted by ILLMATIC

These cars pull air through the radiator from below, so that is ducting to make sure it goes through instead of over the rad. Originally Posted by ILLMATIC

I honestly got scared as soon as I saw 22" wheels, but doesn't look too bad at all. I would let someone put those wheels on a S10, then get satin black with machined accent forgelines or something in 18" or 19" Originally Posted by Mr.VENGEANCE
