F-Body Cutlass (well not really)

[canucksfan1]

Not sure if anyone has done anything like this before but i had the front piece of a camaro lying around and decided why not see if i can make it fit my cutlass. It is not done by any means and will have to find a way to get the lights in and stuff but i think it looks kinda neat. Can't get that great of pics yet cuz the g.f has the camera so i took some with my phone.

It definatly wouldn't be steetable because there was no way i could get it to fit without removing the bumper but this car is going to be my drag car anyway so who cares. I will either have to cut a piece of sheet metal to fill the front or narrow a the fiberglass camaro hood i have to make it fit (which i really don't want to do as it has the functional hood scoops and everything but hey it was free)

Anyway i dont know how to upload pics but i will give some lnks to the pics http://gbodyforum.com/photos/displayimage-292-8.html

That's some good stuff if you can make it work Too bad it wouldn't be a street car so you could confuse some people.

I should be able to make it work just take a little bit of time. The body lives won't quite be perfect but i will make it look good. I think i may be able to fine a way to get the bumper back on and make it street legal which would be pretty sweet. No one would know what the hell it was i was driving! I also have the larger 3rd gen camaro spoiler that i am gunna bolt onto the trunk. It should look different for sure (and if i don't like it who cares its a race car and i can alwayschange it back)

right click on the picture in it's expanded form. Select properties. Copy the text for the location, and put it between

lets see if this works

well i guess it did allthough they are a little big (sorry) it looks better when i get a few bolts in to help hold it in line, so the body lines aren't so dramatically different. ( and thanks for the info on posting pics)

I like it I would like to see you do it.

I don't think it is gonna work. The F body is much wider than the G body, and the body lines are different too. I think Crystallite engineering in the 80's or 90's offered a front end to do this to a Monte Carlo, so you may wish to look for one of those. I think they are now called Lauren Engineering.
