Rough Start: What Happens When You Combine A Ford Thunderbird And A Chevrolet Camaro?


Rough Start: What Happens When You Combine A Ford Thunderbird And A Chevrolet Camaro?

The second I saw this 1994 Ford Thunderbird, I couldn’t wait to see the reactions from you guys. Seriously…we all have heard Lohnes’ take on how much he seriously enjoys four-seat T-birds, I’ll admit that I like them, and Chad doesn’t care one way or the other, normally. Something tells me that he’s going to care once he sees this chimera! One thing that seems to be a common thread on the MN-12 (1989-97) Thunderbirds is that their styling is a little bit bland. Want the cure for that? How about blending the body design with an early fifth-gen Camaro? It’s an off-the-wall choice, and that’s putting it mildly…who would actually think up such a combination? From the front, the Thundermaro looks pretty aggressive…the open grille area looks great, and the flared fenders look great in the photos. From the side…I don’t know. What do you think?

From the ad: I have a 1994 thunder bird with a 4.6 v8 auto trans it runs and drives good it has a 2012? Camaro front clip rear fenders and bumper it is a good start to a really cool project body has some issues no rust just some imperfections interior is a ugly red cloth and you would prolly wanna change it but regardless the car has 133,000 miles has 18in dodge magnum wheels on pretty nice tires it is not perfect and needs to be finished but I want 3,000$ and I am completely firm on the price absolutely will not take less. Ever heard the Johnny cash song, one piece at a time? Well….. Here’s the car for the song! And he said his was worth atleast 100 grand so….. Your gettin this one cheap.

    I’m cool with it…neither car is overly common in Australia so no preconcieved ideas as to what it `should’ look like I suppose. Its proportions are OK, looks reasonably clean and its certainly not the most horrible thing you’ve ever posted…. and for 3 grand yeh I’d give it a go… I imagine Geordie will lose his shit when he sees it though.

    Well someone liked it since the ad has been deleted already. I think the car looks pretty good except for the rear, taillights are goofy.

    Okay, this “prolly” crap has to end. Is basic literacy that dead? Have we reached a point where a good basic education consists of knowing 21 or 23 letters of the alphabet and most of the numbers up to 47? Oy vey!

    with respect both of those were direct from the original advert – I’ve seen some howlers that make this seem like Rhode scholar material…I mean, sooo bad that you cannot actually make out what they are trying to say…..

      No offence to you, John T. I was directing my irritation towards the guy who actually wrote the ad. I too have seen some of those ads you mention, and they make my head hurt.

    Whatever sick bastard did this needs to be drug out in the street and shot. How much meth do you have to be on for this to seem like a good idea??? The nose is too wide – notice how there are fender flares on the back of the front wheel but not on the front? – and it looks like it’s sagging worse than a worn out crack whores tits.

    No.

    Not just no, but HELL no.

    Damn you McTaggart, this hideous thing is going to stick in my head for quite awhile now!
