It walks a fine line between a being a 3 dimensional mixed metaphor,and a rolling oxymoron.

I have seen it in real life, was at lead east in 2002.. Its really a cool car but i never got to meet the guy... I over herd from the Ez rods club that it wasnt finished... so im guessn its going to be a wacky prostreet....

EDIT* thats me in the background... Damn, i got this off some FOTKI site... man its a small world...

I'm sorry,but......
"Pro-street" and "Shoebox" do NOT belong in the same sentence.......
Now, on the other hand,if he could figure out a way, to get THAT engine, UNDER a FLAT HOOD,and keep it LOW enough you couldn't see the fat MEATS.........it MIGHT work.
Just my $.02 worth.

Wow! That's on par w/ the PPE for cartoonesque proportions. Just goes to show that lots of cool parts in a cool car can still suck.

Nothing wrong with a hotrod showbox. I'd have to get rid of the radirs though.

I love the body, that chop is bitchin!!
But, i don't like tubbed cars, any. I would have rather seen a kickass custom made out of it, it cirtainly has the right everything for that.
But, thats just my useless oppinion http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I wouldn't put it down though, somebody did a lot of work to get it where it is.

I want to know how he can leave the line without dragging body parts if that motor lives up to its appearance!

I like it!

Normally I like low sleak and smooth, but this thing captures high horsepower quite well in my opinion... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

i like it http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif, though i'd run wide whites on the rear too. fatties but maybe not quite "PRO-Street" fatties like it seems to have now. cool concept. reminds me of my Muscle Machine toys i have layin around.

Seems to me that Cecil Profitt built a similar car back around 1980;yellow Shoebox on a tube frame and monster motor(think it was a BBC)even had a quiet exhaust system.Saw it at a car show in Massachusetts;think it was the first pro street car I ever saw.Was on a PPG calendar awhile back.FWIW I think it's great.Livin' outside the box can be fun.
