Big effort. I wonder what's underneath all of that stuff.... rust? reinforced body? decent components?

The Camaro Chrysler (thanks Ferg) headlights are killing me. It looks like a creepy cartoon character in front. But hey, someone had a vision and did it. That body work would be very hard to execute.

What's with the munchkin seats?

Posted by: Ferg May 17 2016, 08:32 AM

Chrysler 300 headlights, sebring grill, BMW old 3 series dash, cut down Taurus SHO seats I think...

Lots of work, not my taste but appears pretty well done.

I think if it had a 959 rear end on it and a Porsche slant nose it may not be too bad....but those seats.....

Wow, talk about a lot of work to make something so...

It's too bad they don't have pictures of the trunks; it would be interesting to see how everything was attached. The quality of work on the parts shown (besides the license plate bracket) seems quite good.

I actually don't hate the BMW dash...especially if it had working AC.

It seems to always be hazardous when you use another car's parts in a custom. They are too recognizable. Of course, some of those parts didn't look good on the cars they came from!

I really admire the skill level in joining those parts.. pretty seamless. I wonder how nice a 914/GT could be put together by this builder?

Tenacity,the strength to get it done,toward a personal vision.Kudos.
That I don't agree on a few of the features,doesn't mean I don't appreciate the effort.
A sum of a combination of design cues from Chrysler,distorted TR sidescoops,and GM,melded into a red spyder with a wing.
Hopefully,someone out there will love it,the cat's ass,just in time for summer.
A real attention getter,whatever the opinions,a custom,like a '32 roadster.
