LOL! Check out that steering wheel! Looks like the cockpit of an oak-lover's private jet.

It's the Knight Rider steering wheel, just way too much plastic wood crap. I like the hatch part of the car, cept for that piece in the middle of the notch...that has to go. And the 3rd one, well those rims are pretty basic. 14? 15?

ugly, ugly, and ugly.

The first one I think is straight up ugly, and a dumb idea.

Second, the hatch looks **** and the steering wheel is probably pretty cool for the first week because its like a **** pit, but then it would prob get old, and it looks very ugly.

Never seen those rims on a third gen either, which is probably a good thing because there ugly too.

I think the second one has an ironing board for a spoiler.

1st shows originality, WAY TOO MUCH TIME and money. should have just got a farari. they cant be THAT expensive. second one, well, two words: brutall beating.

as for the third "ONE OWNER CAR! BARGAIN"
it's not a bargain if that one owner trashed it. dumb ***. that car is an ambersment. it looks like somone swallowed the eighties and threw it up on his wheels damn those are ugly. are those even original? did they come off an 81 sunbird or perhaps a 79 tempast. pleas tell me they are not bird equipment.

1st one is too far gone.

2nd one wouldnt be so bad if it had a real steering wheel and we got rid of the spoiler.

the 3rd someone probably snagged the wheels for another project and this guy decided he should at least throw some wheels on it if hes going to try to sell it.

2 and 3 wouldnt take much to save.

They look like wheel covers over steel rims. Enlarge the photos and look at the area around the valve stems....and the one with the missing black plastic lug nut cover...

"Ferrari GT kit car...built on a... Firebird V6 ..with automatic..." lol some replica...didn't even use a manual trans...part out the drivetrain and scrap the rest...

#2 still has all the original parts that were taken off, wouldn't be hard to salvage that one...

#3 would need some real rims and paint and interior, but it is salvagable too...

If im not mistaken, the sellers of #3 list it as a low milage vehicle... but the milage is listed at like 115,000 or something like that. lol, not terrible...but not low.

1. European cars need to stay on European chassis.

2. Sharp looking car minus the fake wood, steering wheel, thing on the hatch, and spoiler. But throw the C5 rims on it and put back all the other original stuff. Job done.

3. Some rough spots but has lots of potential.
