Re: 69 front on thirdgen.

I ususally don't like stuff like this, but this isn't too bad. I could live with it.

Re: 69 front on thirdgen.

Interesting, nice photoshop but I don't think those two generations should be mixed. I think its the metal front bumper that really shouldn't be there.

Never been crazy about ram air hoods on thirdgens. I know they have functionality sometimes, but they look too 4th gen for me.

Re: 69 front on thirdgen.

I'll never understand why people feel the need to change the lines of the third gen. The car in stock form is already fantastic.

Re: 69 front on thirdgen.

I saw a thirdgen with a 69 front on CL recently was not great and not awful.

Re: 69 front on thirdgen.

Minus the metal bumper it would be OK, IMO. I wouldn't do it or drive it.. I just think the bumper doesn't fit with the lines at all...

The front end looks too short.

I was going to say that if you're wanting a 69-esque look for the front, it'd be better to make a 5th gen front work on it since it is the same kind of bumper cover as a thirdgen's. Some of the lines match... in a way
