Its just tape hiding the grill. There are already several Firebird/TransAm replicas out there so there would be no reason to camouflage it. (Check out the March '10 Hot Rod.) Anyone notice how the rear appears to have a huge wing under the cover?

 

Actually many aftermarket body enhancing companies use cameo and yes they do have to check the functionality of the product. This is just someones pore attempt to be the news topic.

Prototype cars are cameoed 100% not just the front hood and fascia.

The aftermarket conversion to Firebird will not work unless you include badges and emblems for everything. It will end up looking like a Firebird and than you sit inside and Camaro hits you in da face! LOL!

 

Ahh, yes they do. They extensively test their products and yes they also cameo their product to protect their design until the production date.

 

I have never seen an aftermarket company camo specific body panels. I would love to see an example of this being done though to say I have seen it for future reference. But, the rear bumper looks to not be black as well.

The design for a "firebird" has been around for a while now, with some already producing it from what I thought.

I do wonder why they would just leave it behind some loading dock with no one around it.

 

So what does everyone think think this really is then? I am very curious because I do love the different art I have seen for Firebird concepts.

 

I like how the car cover just "happened" to be blown by the wind.....

 

If you want my true opinion...look at the picture it self, no people around, snow, half cameo, different wheels, no people around not a "truck" that dropped it off...it has to be a aftermarket company or someone building a show car.

Wings West does cameo when they test drive their body kits but all it does is bring more attention to the car...

 

thats what makes me question what this really is

 

MarkR14, very cool pics! Thanks for posting them. I hope it is a Z/28. Those black front wheels look mean!

Does anybody else think the headlight shape is reminiscent of the LS1 Camaro?

[grammar ****]
Diplomat, Please stop using "cameo" when you mean to say "camo" which is short for camouflage. Unless this car is making a cameo appearance in a TV show, movie, commercial, etc then it is just wrong.

Thank you & have a nice day!

wtf is that!? the hood looks like the hood offered by RK sport http://www.rksport.com/main/part_det...mdid=1&catid=4 looks like someones recreation of a firebird,the way that nose looks.

 

Exactly, and the question is...is that what it is or is it what someone wants us to think it is.

 

what,does someone want us to think pontiac is rising from the dead and bringing the firebird back? if thats the case, then i dont think so. probably just a firebird body package that someone is going to offer. look at the spoiler on the back too. that think it huge.

 

What auto companies do you work near?

 

No, the opposite. That it is made to look like an aftermarket Pontiac front clip but is actually something else.

Rather improbable, but it sure would be a crafty trick.
