That's being kind. The front of the GTO is kinda okay, from a distance. But the front of the Firebird looks horribly tacked on and cobbled up. And the rears of both look like they were made out of plywood by a high school wood shop.

Well I guess its one of those. Gotta see them in person. I was standing around them and talking to the guys who built them and overhead a lot of positive about the car. Even walking away they said it was nice.
But yea I guess pictures just do not do it justice. The cars IMO were done very nice.

Ummmmmmmm.............No.

Now the Chevy concept that has been floating around IS all Pontiac. It's a Kappa car that was thrown together to make a Chevy "concept."

I like the interior mods they did to the t/a on the dash board.

In my opinion, these conversions are getting kinda old, even though they are getting better with each release. Kinda weird, I know. I just don't see them anywhere except at shows like this. I wonder how many people are buying them?
