 I was cruising around eBay and I came across this auction. This company is licensed to build Pontiac T/A's from new Camaros. Looks like great workmanship. I would like to own one, or two! What do you all think?

The black one near erin mills    and dundas   :)

It looks forced somehow to me.  I've seen other ones though that I liked well enough.

Not much different than the Cuda version of the new Challenger, which did little for me.

Ghoste

Great analogy Curtis.  Same thing here, the Cuda-ized Challenger looks forced to me.

That's the one ;)

I think they make a look-alike GTO Judge as well.

Not bad, but I'd like to see what Pontiac itself would have done with the new car.

Ghoste

What platform are they making the GTO off of, the Camaro as well?

JB400

Yes, unfortunately.  Camaro platform.  Too bad they wouldn't make the Impala SS a 2 door as well.  It'd lend itself to those that would like a Chevelle or other A body

I think I know what you mean here - there's a couple things that look 'off' to me

The styling of the new Camaros is mostly based on the 67-69 Camaro, and so any Pontiac clone should be based on the first-gen, for the body lines to match well.   However, the features on this car are obviously based more on the late 70's T/A, so it looks 'weird'.  I expect to see that hood and grille on a car with a really long nose, and those taillights don't look like they were updated for the newer design of the car, they almost look like someone just yanked a set of tails out of an old bandit car and painted them up.

The new cuda-fied Challenger is at least based on the E-Body of the same years, so the lines kind of work.


I think they should have shot for this:

[ŌŌ]ƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖ[ŌŌ] = 68
[ŌŌ][ƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖ][ƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖ][ŌŌ] = 69
(ŌŌ)[ƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗ](ŌŌ) = 70

yup..I had one of those...damn good cars in my opinion

I don't care much at all for the new Camaros so it don't look good to me. I did like the old 67-69 firebirds even with not liking the Camaros of the same years.

No. It is a Camaro. Pontiac is dead, T/A is Pontiac, also dead. let the dead rest in peace. Looks like a Frankenstein car.

Sorry, just my opinion.
