Post the Most Interesting *APPEARANCE* Topics from Other Message Boards

I hope this is allowed, because if it isn't... it should be!

I don't know about the rest of you guys, but I like this board (CamaroZ28.com, duh) because I can easily keep up with the new topics. Places like LS1Tech just have TOO MANY PEOPLE!

HOWEVER... some topics are just too good to resist sharing. This topic is where you can post links to some of the most interesting topics from another board. I'm not talking namby pamby topics though, I'm talking "HOLY CRAP, I HAVEN'T SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THAT ON CAMAROZ28.COM BEFORE!" topics.

Since CamaroZ28.com and the appearance forum we're in is mostly dedicated to 4th gens, I think it would be most appropriate to only post 4th gen stuff here, but if it's something undeniably cool, break the rules!

Please do not post topics concerning ebay items or anything else "timely" that won't be on the internet for a long time. This would basically just be concerned with ebay items I suppose...

Pretend this is a sticky and a resource to refer back to.

I'll start.

This guy is basically chop shopping an LT1 Camaro and an LS1 Trans Am together. It's really remarkable all the effort he's putting in, and it is the first of its kind I've seen! He calls it the Transmaro!

Too bad you have to log in to see any of the pictures on there. I don't feel like creating a user ID to look at one thread.

That looks kinda funny, but I'm glad you posted them. I couldn't see the pics either and didn't want to make an account.

Does anyone else have a topic to link to here? I may add one about interior customization from LS1tech, but I'm not sure if it is worthy yet.

Interior topics that are really well done:

How to recover your door panels (specifically Firebird style):
http://ls1tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=734488

What a really well done dash covered in vinyl looks like (by a professional auto shop):
http://ls1tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=882312

A guy covered nearly his entire interior in vinyl himself, and did a pretty good job on it. You can learn how he did it, and see his results here. This is a good topic to see 1. How it looks and 2. How difficult it is to get most parts perfect. The armrests are definitely the most outstanding piece.

Some very good interior upgrades in this topic:
http://ls1tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=885086

I'm disappointed all of these great topics were about Firebirds since I care more about the Camaros, but oh well... it's really good info I haven't seen on here nevertheless.
