Its a Malibu wagon. The IROC conversions used to be popular in the 80's.

that's what I was thinking.....

those "IROC conversion" noses just dont look right, I think it's the slope of the nose or something.

That's a Malibu, or another A-body wagon. I put 250,000 miles on one, I'd recognise it anywhere.

The conversion noses for the A/G-bodies are too flat through the headlight area. Of course, if they were the right profile, they would make the front overhang extremely long, and throw the propotions off even more.

and we are supposed to be car lovers? ANYBODY WITH GLAUCOMA can tell what that is. IT ISN'T PHOTOSHOPPED PEOPLE. it is a MALIBU (MAHLEEBOO) wagon with a CAMARO (CAHMAHROW) ground effects kit from lauren engineering on it. they make it for the EL CAMINO too. damn why must we always stir the $h!t? EVERYTHING IS NOT A CONSPIRACY!!!!!!

THANK YOU.... sorry 'bout that it just seems everytime i turn around i see something else that could have very easily happened being questioned and "picked apart" and people who could be telling the ***'s honest truth told that they are liars. it just gets annoying after a while. so now that is my new saying "everything is not a conspiracy"

They actually did make that for a thirdgen, and come to think of it also the 2nd gen too. Someone should have pics of them on here. don't like the 2nd gen, but the 3rd and 4th look nice.

Yes, GM made 2 (fibreglass I believe, though I could be wrong, they may have just discussed manufacturing them in fibreglass).
One was silver, the other was gold, and both had matching luggage. The gold one was crushed, and the silver one was the only survivor of that little idea.

There was also an 84 Trans AM Anniversary car that had that wagon hatch too. Even though I don't like the looks of it, it would be nice to have, especially when it comes time to move things.

i dont think it could have been that one, 91FIREBIRDGT.. im pretty sure pre-85 cars didn't have foglight pockets.

the 84 anniversary ones had a body-colored panel there instead.. and as you can see in the picture, there ARE foglight pockets there.

That looks like a damn hearse.

On a side-note, when I die, I'm demanding a 3rd gen hearse be built for me.
