"TGROAH5RVN" built this very nice GTM. Tons of customizations.
Check out the the window frames and how they are integrated to the body lines in the roof/upper door. The Side and Roof scoops seem to blend into the body beautifully!
If I'm not mistaken, this builder is in the West Virginia area. I also believe that I read that he did ALL of the bodywork and paint himself.
Great Job Buddy!

Some say, that I only know two facts about ducks, (both being wrong); and that if I could be bothered, I could solve the "da Vinci Code" in 47 seconds...
All I know is that I'm called "The Stig". GTM #0081

This beautiful car is Bart Brown's recently finished GTM. Gen I GTM, with Gen II Hood. Nice work Bart! Apparently Cory Brown has a Gen II that is being painted as we speak. So we should be seeing yet another example of this shop's work before long.

Looks like it is a completed gen 2, not first gen? Either way i love the paint
The tell-tell is the hatch. The hood and the hatch are where the "just looking to tell which Gen" body changes are. I've yet to see a completed GTM that I didn't like.

I have to stop coming to this site. Just say NO!...No...no...Yes...YES...YESSSSS!!!!!
Black is what this car wants. My 93 TA was black and it looked good. The GTM looks like 14 times better. Do you think my financial advisor would let me pull $40,000 out of an IRA to do this?
Rev, I would like to say that your GTM looks absolutely amazing! Between the other cars posted in this thread and then seeing your's as the last on here, it was just the icing to the cake for my decision of a GTM over the Type 65 (or waiting for the 818). Awesome job, very well done. Love the interior by the way. About how long did that take to complete (if you don't mind me asking)?
It took all up, about 2 1/2 years to complete. Would have been quicker had i bought a donor car instead of a pallet full of Corvette C5 parts. Turned out that a lot was missing from that pallet and so i had to order the missing stuff and that took a lot of time. I'm located in Poland so i had to ship the parts from the US. With the interior, i was trying to go for as much as possible (and as much as my back pocket would allow) a production car interior quality. Worked out pretty good!

Canadiangtm: I think it was your car that I saw in Driving.ca, yes? If so, thank you for getting me obsessed with the GTM. Looking forward to building my own.

I just looked up that sight and saw the article myself. The car was featured in the vancouver sun, victoria and edmonton paper also!
Built by Shane Vacek, and Owned by David Curtis.
The combination of the paint color & custom wing that Shane developed, make this car really stand out.
Love that steering wheel. Is the wing supported by the body panel only? Also how is your intake plumed? Into the fender where i sucks air from the vents aft of the doors?
WOW this is awesome thread... I love these cars. Because guys your ideas are just awesome, Specially the exterior designs and color of the cars are great. I think these cars are more attractive then other branded cars. Thanks for sharing the photos. I like all the cars.

Finally had a few minutes to post the finished pictures of GTM #333. I completed the build around the end of May and went through all the NYS inspections in June. I finally got the plates on June 15th. Thanks to the great people on this forum. A special thanks to Kempo, Mikespms, Joe Mush, JLnike, and Rum Runner. Without everyones help I would still be in the garage and not out on the road enjoying my hard work.
