I'm a Camaro guy too but definitely the t/a. first of all they look better and they bring more $$ than 2nd gen Camaros. especially the t/a.
The TAs are sexy if done right! Like I said, not building to sell, but we all know how that goes I was at Barrett Jackson in January...I saw a red 70 Camaro go for $150K....so who really knows...just depends on timing, etc. I am leaning towards doing the TA....
Its like blondes,brunets ,and redheads type thing. I have had a 1973 Nova SS, A 1972 Chevelle wagon.And my two present cars 1979 Z-28 RS Camaro and 1981 El Camino SS. I grew up during the Muscle Car era .So I remember when the cars were new.I have driven and worked on all brands .Even some Porches ,BMW ,VW bugs.So it is my attitude that is what you are into go for it ,Its your pocketbook.
That Trans Am is cool! I actually really like the 74-76 fronts, and I'd like to see more of them built. I also see it as leading the trend... I kind of hate that I've seen the 70-73 Camaros explode in popularity as my 71 has just sat for the last 15 years. Kinda why I'm more excited for my Firebird, that's a bit more uncommon than the Camaro.

I really liked my 455 '74 TA, but now prefer the front end of the '75.
I saw this car and really thought it was WAY COOL! I always loved the 70-73 Firebird noses....I was able to pick a complete front end from a 73...but these photos of the 75 have me thinking??

I agree..... you see a lot of Camaros, but don't see a bunch of 2nd gen Firebirds pro-toured.
