Customs Anyone recognize this car??

  1. You're kidding, right? He'd have business cards printed up with that car. However, he'd repaint it lime green with a pink top and electric blue flames....

    I think it would look better if he'd close the hood.

    That almost looks like something the Griswolds would be seen in!

  6. It says runs and turns on and is very cheap. Im all out of room for a bit. Also not exactly my style. This would be a fun car to just drive around all gaudy like it is. mom sure the OP is just getting the AOK from the wife or something.
    if it were a Ford or Chevy it would have been gone by now.
     
  7. The side n back look good to me
    Loose the continental tire thingy
    And if the hood was more stock looking not so cut in on the sides and pointed would make it flow a bit better.
    The windshield looks like it’s off a 70’s or 80’s car.
    With the top off it would look better.


    I would drive the tires off it, but I like gaudy tacky stuff.
    Must be the Italian in me :D

    That is one ugly car. I don't like to criticize anyone's creativity but what a hunk of limburger.

    Well, if a guy buys that cheap enough and then makes some changes for the better on it few people are going to cry and whine about it.

    Stick an original nose back on it and french the headlights and park lights.
    Those 53 Kaiser rear bumper ends look like an afterthought on a stock rig let alone a modified rig. Still loosing the continental kit and moving the bumper back in and doing something about the ends to make them blend in like they should would clean the rear up.
