And just to confuse the issue, I'd call this one a factory phantom: By CaminoLS6 GM built a few of these, but they didn't make production due to costs.
-
You have it exactly right, Mr. Blu.
-
I think some of you are missing the point here just a bit. A Phantom isn't just an engine swap, it isn't a full-on custom (changing the drive wheels etc.), and it isn't a concept car brought to life (unless it is on a production platform. These would be Phantoms: A 2-door Tahoe A convertible GTO a G8 coupe A Solstice sedan A '72 Chevelle sedan delivery A Mustang wagon and so on...

Good stuff! Keep 'em coming.

I love the Pacific Slate color (Karma in Holdenspeak), it is the leading choice for my ST right now.

Rumors Of My Demise Have Been Greatly Exaggerated
Camino LS6 replied to Oracle of Delphi's topic in The Lounge
Well, I already have two Colonnades to choose from - although your suggestions would be fun too. I'm thinking the Project Camino all finished including a new Ramjet 350. I need to have it done for the 50th anniversary celebration at Carlisle in June of '09 anyway. :AH-HA_wink: -

Hmmm, pro-touring in a restored Colonnade... Very tempting. -
Certainly not the agressive style of the concept that I loved so much... still, the nose looks better than the Malibu's, so that's a good sign.

Phantoms (cars the factory could have built, but didn't) have always been a passion of mine. One great example would be a 94-96 Impala SS 2-door convertible - a car that would be a major collectible now had it been built IMO. So, what Phantoms would you like to build if money were not an issue?
-
Is an explanation required? :AH-HA_wink:

One of my "Phantom" recipes for the future: - import wrecked Holden sportwagon as "salvage parts" - buy a salvage G8 ST - engage torch Result: one-off Pontiac Shooting Brake.

Way to make me smile!
-
I was wondering why I hadn't heard from you about this... Real nice toy.
-
Nice recipe, Ocn! God I just want to spend all my time building such things... Wonder if I could ever make a living doing so? Phantoms have always intrigued me.
-
Fixed. :AH-HA_wink:
-
I remember them on these cars, but I think they got an Arrowhead centercap.
-
I just can't imagine ever spending the money on any of these cars brand new. I would hate myself instantly for not buying something far nicer (even if slightly used) for the same money. I just can't understand why anyone would do that to themselves.
-
The price is a bit high, IMO. And, the snowflakes have T/A wheelcenters - I'd bet this car did not come with them from the factory. Why is it that I always remember these cars in a bright metallic green?

Sounds like a great trip! I am insanely jealous! -
What an overdose of cool!

-
Leftlane pics are back up. And they say this is the " Corvette Centennial Concept", and that it will debut at the LA show.
-
There is no way that car should be in a derby! I could make room for it if someone wants to buy it for me. :AH-HA_wink: I sure hope it finds a good home.

Criminally ugly.

Browser issues? Worked easily for me the first time. Make sure that you hit "submit" after you answer at a question in the general survey (scroll around a bit to see the whole page). Maybe that will help. When you do that, it will show a green check mark on that section. Once you see the check mark, try the recommendations button. Other than that, I have no idea why you guys can't access this.
