    Stunning! It's also nice to see that you took an alternative path by not severely chopping the top. The car is fucking sharp.

    my GOD . . .

    with another thread going on and on about "cars as art" here on the board, the so-called "artist" of the cars claimed to be art would do well to take some fuckin remedial art lessons from this car, for IT is art.

    Hats off to you speedaddict... Bodylines Inc = ARTISTS
