For the cost to ship from NY to Cali, they could buy two third gens.

@ Extreme Dimensions...
Have you guys actually considered creating an 2010 body kit retrofitted for a Thrid Gen. I saw an article in Hot Rod that demonstrated this. Especially cosnidering Third Gen body styles look strange when you consider putting something like a Venice or sniper body kit that typically flushes the contours of the original shape and attempts to apply curvature to a body that is naturally squared and angled? I think these Fifth Gen Kits for 82-92 would be the first body kit that would actually sell for 3rd gens

'10 Third-Gen Camaro?
Trying to put an old face on a newer body style typically results in an abomination-we've seen 'em by the dozen. However, Steve has developed the only body kit concept we've ever seen that takes full advantage of the third-gen Camaro's styling strengths and eliminates its weaknesses. It works surprisingly well, doesn't it? The best part of this concept is it's totally doable without major surgery. The body is stone stock, and the fifth-gen Camaro body kit is designed to bolt in place of the original front and rear fasciae, hood, and rocker covers. The key here is proportion. The two cars share little more than a nameplate, so a critical artist's eye is needed to pull it off successfully. Would it sell? The kit would no doubt be expensive if developed, but considering the abundance of supercheap third-gens out there, plus the price of a fifth-gen, we think it could be an investment many owners would be willing to make.

It's not supposed to look like a tuner, it's supposed to look like a muscle car. I love the way my 83 looks from the back:
The few times I've driven behind her, I couldn't keep my eyes off her ***
