So...is this a body swap, or just a Firebird front end conversion of some sort?

It has been front clipped to just behind the front seats.

So for those of us not cool enough to recognize it from the shock towers, what is it?

Everything in front but the exterior is 4th-gen F-body. The rest is 2nd-gen Firebird. Nothing Earth-shattering, but more interesting to me than a simple LS swap.

In reply to ditchdigger:

It's a really neat car, but I think it might be neat in that "if I had infinite time and storage space so I never had to give up another project to do this one" way...

Okay, off to get a couple more sheets of 3/4" ply to do the right thing with the gaps I've left in the attic floor so far.
