  3. I gotta be the one to disagree....I think the Tbird /50 Fords look a lot better than that.

    It's an interesting piece of work, not my cup of tea (actually, I threw up a little in my mouth, ugh) but it rings the bell for being original and not just another cookie cutter kustom or chop top deuce.

    Ya'll are wrong- those are spyshots of government motors' bi-powered protoype retro intended for the VIP/gold-chainer demographic.

    Only if my daily driver Nova had been smashed front and rear and I had the 57 parts just laying around and somebody owed me some body work...EH, probably still wouldn't do it....

    its kinda like a plane crash...you know its bad ,but you cant help but look..kinda like a lesson in what you shouldnt do.
    although the builder or (hack) did a halfway decent job of melding the two styles ..i cant believe im even putting a respose to this thread....

    could i get Banned for this?..really guys im on the fence, please some one either plug it in, or knock me off!:eek:

    With this really being the WWW (World Wide Web) it would be neat if the person that did this "creative" work could be notified that his handywork is being discussed here, and he could join and explain the reasoning.

    Maybe he lost a bet. (Not defending, just wondering what would prompt someone to do all that work for heck of it)

    I don't know what you guys are talking about but that thing is perfect!! If I had that car I would drive it every place I could. Think of all the people that would absolutely HATE you!! It would be fucking fantastic!!! All the idiots telling you they have a friend that has the same exact car, all the old guys wanting to kill you for ruining a 57 chevy!!! I would love every minute of driving that thing. Of course I would have to grow a mullet and sweet 'stash but I think I could live with it if that was in front of my house!

    Ain't it. After all that hype they spit out that mutant. Hopefully they take a hint from the challenger before they do any more restyling. At least Pro Stock and the new Trans Am Series would be a lot more entertaining.
