It's like a reverse mullet.
Let’s just get right to the copy from the Craigslist ad on this one:
This is a 1994 Thunderbird with an all stock 4.6 V8 automatic drivetrain, power windows, power door locks, aftermarket remote CD player stereo, it has a 2010 SS Camaro front end and also Dodge Magnum rear wheel well flares and Dodge Magnum 18” rims with new tires, runs and drives good, the dashboard needs a little TLC and there is some squeaking coming from a ball joint in the front end,,it is inspected till 12/17,it runs and drives good,,and gets lots of looks,asking $4000.obo
So you started with cars I really did need (want) and then either it rapidly went down hill or I have worse taste than I thought.
Whoever buys this car will need to get ready to answer over and over again, "Hey, what kinda car is that?" That alone would keep me from purchasing. Looks like they did a pretty good job of piecing it together.
The side view and roofline remind me of a Nascar body. The only Camaro looking feature is the grill.
Okay, Mr. Wallens, it has become clear to me that you're trolling us.
I, or anyone else, needs that like I (or anyone) need a '94 Cavalier, runs good just needs brake lines and a trans and four tires and a new windshield and there's no title, will trade for sportbike or lifted diesel truck
I'll give him credit for piecing things together pretty smoothly, but that's one weird looking car...proportions are all wrong, the front end looks huge compared to the rear, and the rear fender flares just look strange....
and then you also get that 80s-tastic interior that looked dated when it was new!
I own a Camaro.
I own a Thunderbird. Actually, if I'm being honest, I own four Thunderbirds (don't judge me).
But I've never felt the need to combine them. Still don't.
For some strange reason I don't hate that. Change the interior to black and that would help it a lot. But over all it is kind of cool.
I admire people that do this stuff. Similar to the stance crowd. They are car people. They had a vision and executed it.
This is a bad, but it's a well executed bad. It also just screams for something stupid to be done to it: like sticking a supercharged LS3 under there, custom inboard suspension bits, and giant 18x11 out back. Not that I recommend doing this, but if you're gonna do stupid, might as well go full stupid.

Yep, I'll second that emotion. I also like the idea of stuffing it with a ton of power and just standing behind it.

I can't agree with this more. Many people will never understand why one would want to take a perfectly driveable car, strip it down to bare essentials, and weave in and out of traffic cones in the blazing hot sun on a Saturday morning.

Fixed it for you.
Perhaps "vision" in like a Wes Craven kind of way?
Sorry. Can't go there. A visionary is something special. A stupid idea is, well, just a stupid idea.
And BTW, I LIKE the stance guys and the low riders (though I don't want their cars).
Many of them ARE visionaries.

Vision as in it was in there mind. Not visionary. Two different words. You are using fools logic to try and make a point. Creepers stop over thinking something that is not your style.
All I am saying is appreciate the effort and skill. Would I do it? Hell no. But I can appreciate it.
Be different. Instead of piling on with those that are bashing this. Open your eyes and appreciate the skill and work that went in to it.
In reply to dean1484:
So, we are wrong unless we agree with you?
Got it.
I'll avoid the semantics argument. Have fun.
