Default Why cut up a first gen?

How many camaros met this ugly fate? I know roof chopping has been around for a long time, but i have never seen it done to a camaro, what a waste. It completely ruins the sexy roof lines these cars have.

I notice he has used 68 glass in the doors, musta been a real pain to get glass to fit...

if that was all the modification done to the car, then i'm fairly unimpressed... if it was a full blown custom creation, then sure i could be more on the bandwagon. But just the one chop... seems kindy silly to me.

why? I am sure we are are wondering this. I am 5"11 and my head isn't too far from the ceiling with the roof stock.

It kinda looks like the old 71-73 mach 1 from the rear.

I know of about 7 or 8 1st gen camaros in salvage-yards around here. Every one of them has every imaginable piece stripped off, and the cars are rusted to the point of only having one good part left - the roof. I know what I'd do if that car were mine, or within my budget
