Guest SPLINTER Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 sorry to tell you this guys but neither of those concepts came out of GM. the first one i dont know about. but the second one is by a guy named Kris Horton, he's still in college, i thing that last one is his too. i saw that thing go through many stages before getting to that last stage, that last one was featured in Popular Hot Rodding i think, the first few stages were slightly different and some old school Chevelle and Camaro lovers made some comments about what he could upgrade, and eventually it turned into what you see now. but Chevy and GM have absolutely nothing to do with this one.

The Bel Air if it happens is supposed to run on a Line 5, 315 hp. Why oh why wont they make cars with a V8 anymore. Can any one tell me around what year and model Lincoln made a car with suicide back doors? Im pretty sure that it was either TownCar or Continental but i do not know for sure. Any heads up would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'62 through '67 or '68 I believe.......and it's the Continental(maybe earlier and later than the years mentioned)---the mid-sixties cars are the ones worth the money...

Guest SPLINTER Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 about 2 years ago Ford had 2 different suicide door Concepts. one was a ford or mercury, the other was a lincoln. both cars looked bad ass but im not sure if they will ever go into production. the bel air is almost a guaratee now, but limited production. it is actuall a car based on the Trailblazer/Envoy trucks if i remember correctly. and thats why the concept has an L5 like the Envoy L6, but both the Envoy and TB have a V8 option now so maybe the Bel Air will have the same option available. next year chevy is gonna supercharge every passenger car except the cavalier. these will be the SS version, all black cars.

mr.yuck Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 455 THANKS FOR THE INFO Sometime this year chevy should also be dropping the SSR. They will be selling it as a new truck. It has a convertible hard top. From the pictures i have seen it is going to be like a super jazze up el camino in true pick up car fashion. I think it is going to be offerd as something along the same line price wise as the Corvette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
