    That's actually no better. The proportions are all wrong. It just looks "fake".

    The proportions are still fucked up, and the bed looks goofy. What's the point? They're not true 'copies' nor reproductions of anything... They are certainly not more aesthetically pleasing than an originals, so other than the fact that they are cheap and made of new metal, why?

    As much as I dislike fiberglass I'd rather have an El-Cheapo glass T-bucket tub than one of those... At least you'd know what you had.

    I don't get it. :rolleyes:

    I know everyone has said they hate the look of the bodies built by New Metal Kustoms but it has given me ideas to build my own with out having a large shop with expensive tools. I do have basic metal tools a welder, grinder, hammer and dollies and soon a torch. I don't have an English wheel or anything like that. I wouldn't spend as much as he want for his bodies but I do believe with time I can build one myself. Here are a few of there bodies finished.
