I think it looks just fine, good to see someone thinking outside the box. It may not be for the mainstream, but I'm sure there is a market for it.

Good Job !!!

I just dont understand. so is this a type R mustang (from Japan)? no. its a gt with a body kit.. same principle with this camaro: z38?

I dont know, maybe its just me, but I've just seen too many random 'converted' Camaros being thrown together lately that its scaring me a little. I dont wanna sound too harsh here, I just dont know how else to sum up my thoughts on this one

Don't be so hard on the guy. I thought similar thoughts when I saw your car.

For the record, I don't like it and think that it's horribly ugly.

But that doesn't mean that everyone doesn't like it. They must be selling, he is doing his 4th one. If everyone did the same thing to their cars, it would be pretty boring.

monstertodd · 03-06-2010, 11:38 AM

Sorry buddy, that thing looks ridiculous.

1. ditch the chrome

2. ditch all the stickers

3. Z38..........eh nooooooo.

seems kinda harsh to me lol.. i didnt even go that far. I just pointed out a FACT that putting badges on a car doesnt make it a specific model, nor does adding a gril and decals. theres no conversion about it, no z38, etc.

(ps its not my car, and i nver claimed it to be a 'converted' anything)

Certainly original, but not for me.

I am posting some pictures of our conversion #003. This is a 575 HP supercharged car with Foose wheels. This car will be finished in a couple of weeks and be shown at the Gopher State Timing Association show March 27 at the St. Paul, MN fairgrounds.

The inferno orange conversion was shown at the Mecum auction in Kissimmee, Fl in Jan. It really recieved a lot of attention and looked sooo good that Mecum is using a picture of it in their promotional materials for their upcoming auctions.

Because of the pearl paint and ghosted lettering on the car , you really can't see the real look of the car in a picture. Our conversions utilize a lot of custom paint. We also have the performance mods with our engine work being done by Doug Rippie Motorsports. Doug has a long history of building corvette racing cars and is one of the best when it comes to modifing the LS series of engines.

To each is own....If you like it then thats all that matters.

infernoinandout · 03-06-2010, 12:55 PM

Its a bit on the over doing part, also do I see factory exhaust still on it and what was done to the engine to give 500hp and was it put on a dino?

conversion#002 has an SLP header, powerflow crossover pipes and a powerflow mufflwer. A SLP 1.85 ratio rocker arm kit was installed along with an airaid air intake filter setup. The car was retuned by Doug Rippie and the dyno showed a 80hp increase at the flywheel. 80hp plus 426 Hp equals more than 500.

I'd have to agree with most on this one... Not so good. The skull graphic looks pretty stupid too.
