It was a sad day for modern muscle car fans when General Motors cancelled their F-body production. There would be no more new Camaros and no more new Firebirds for quite some time, gone was an affordable ticket to 350 HP and truly earth shattering performance. In an attempt to make good the General brought over a rebadged Holden and tried to sell it as the GreaT One. If it hadn’t been for a bit too much weight and the rising prices in go juice, the modern day GTO might have had a chance. Now it is time for the 2010 model year to start making appearances in the street and thankfully the Camaro has been reborn to take on a restyled retro Mustang and true muscle car from Dodge. Sadly Pontiac did not survive 2009 and with its demise the hopes of being able to buy a new Firebird are gone with it.
So what do you do if you don’t like the hand that General Motors has dealt, look into a Trans Am conversion kit and turn a brand new Chevrolet Camaro into the brand new Pontiac Firebird you have always wanted. This particular kit from the radical designer Kevin Morgan who’s screaming chicken, Smokey and the Bandit interpretation is a bit wilder than the last one of these automobile changing body kits. This model was first revealed as a concept, but the Pheonix T/A Camaro Concept will be represented by a road ready production version later on this year.
The Trans Am conversion package will include a ride height lowering Kit, 20 inch wheels, shaker hood scoop, vented fenders, a new rear fascia, rear spoiler and the all important Trans Am graphic package.
