Big effort. I wonder what's underneath all of that stuff.... rust? reinforced body? decent components? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

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... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif)
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.
