I saw this at a car show in Henderson N.C. on Sat. Someone converted a Camaro into a Trans Am...

I really hope they don't just make a few cosmetic changes to the Camaro and call it a Trans Am...

That looks good, but it's still a Camaro with some very minor cosmetics applied to it.

that is exactly what was done, the tail end was different, teh hood, and a few small cosmetic things, but there is a company out there doing a conversion....do a search adn you can find the threads and there is info in there.

That's kind of my point. Always thought it was a sham, might as well just call it the Pontiac Camaro and be done with it.

I've seen that car enough times before, but it's still a shoddy attempt at a Trans Am. Camaro SS Mail slot? Camaro cowl hood with a shaker in it? I mean come on I'm sure they could found someone to create a quality replacement hood for the cowl induction. The tail lights section looks like somebody took a poor attempt at photo shop. I give them credit for trying but that car is a big time fail and pretty much a disgrace to the Trans Am name plate. People should just let the car rest in peace with the Pontiac brand and knowing that the 98-02 cars were the perfect way for the Trans Am to go out on top in design with the super sexy & aggressive WS6 package.

I don't mind the front and the sides and the hood, it's the damn tail lights they screwed up on. They are horrible.
