NEW POST The tires are stuffed way up under the fenders. This car was being built for a while in 2009, but by 2010, the owner of Big3 Performance announced they are closing down. In the first quarter of 2010, Bob Cloud made this announcement on the company's website:"Big 3 Performance has suspended operations and is in the process of realigning and in some cases liquidating assets and winding up. Thank you for your patience and cooperation!" Here is the timeline for the company's rise and fall: September 2008 - The planning. Big3 Performance sent concept renderings to a select few people including Sean Mattingly for review and comments November 2008 - Revised concept drawings released to the public. They looked GOOD! July 2009 - Saw the frame of the car displayed at GTOAA/POCI Co-Vention in Dayton, Ohio August 2009 - These photos are from Tri-Power Nationals in Norwalk, Ohio. The car was coming together, but had no interior in it yet. September 2009 - Big3 Performance had an open house at their shop in Wisconsin with a sneak preview of the car November 2009 - The car is completed and unveiled to the automotive press and car enthusiasts at the SEMA show in Las Vegas January 2010 - Magazine HPP is testing the car in Gainesville. February 2010 - HPP featured the car. Author Kevin DiOssi gushed: "When it comes down to it, this is the best GTO I have ever photographed, driven, or heard. It embodies what makes a GTO a GTO-power, style, and performance." March 2010 - Along with a car show flyer, Jim Wangers reveals that the car will not make an appearance at the April show due to the dissolution of the company that makes the cars. March 11, 2010 - Big3 Performance announces on their website that they have suspended operations CLICK->
