this thing has some really cool styling points , but it also has some really bad ones. I love how the top looks .

 

The wheel skirts have to go. edit... just noticed that they are removable... thank ***.

The back of the car looks great.

the intake looks awesome!

wheels... i dunno

:lala:

 

im not to sure about that ...the ground effects dont look right when their molded into the body like that ....and like said above the wheel skirts and wheels have to go...lol..
but the top doesnt look to bad on it chopped like that

 

hmmm.......i dont know what to say about that....i dont like it...but whatever...

 

I agree with you 100%. I can't figure out whether I like it or not. The skirts are horrible, but the top is cool. I find it hard to believe that it was in Street Rodder magazine, as that mag doesn't feature any cars built after 1950 or so. It was probably in the background of a 32 Ford picture.

 

 

i think that car looks absolutley gorgeous.. i just don't like the rear removable wheel covers, and the red interior. other than that.. look sweet. love the headlights

 

I dont understand why the import crowd with the civics,etc don't chop the tops. Fbodies and stuff, IMO, don't need it... but some of those economy oriented cars.. if they chopped the top it would help out the stance a LOT. Proportion is a good thing.. and I think the guy in the auction went too far. *shrug*

WHAT KIND OF INTAKE IS THAT?!?!?!?

it looks like a cross between a ZR1, a TPI, and a Roots blower!,

I LIKE IT!

 

yeah that looks like an lt5 intake with 8 runners on each side. anyone know what for sure it is?

 

Def not a ZR1 motor... unless the dohc stuff is somehow camoflauged to look like regular valve covers heheh. Dunno if you can put just the intake on though... no idea.

Says its an L98, but the badge pic says 349 HO... like it's something different, who knows.

 

true i didnt even think about that



heres the pic in case anyones too lazy to look at the link or is at work and cant see ebay

 

I wonder if it's just some kinda cover b/c I dont even see a TB. Just doesnt look right.... like it goes over the TB. It does look pretty neato though.

yeah it does look kinda like its a cover doesnt it

 

Nice vette

 

That thing is awesome! I'd buy it, remove the bird decal, throw some clean rims on it, and install a hi-rise Camaro spoiler on the back.

That would be sooooo sweet.

 

great minimize the headroom space , other then that its ****ing sweet

 

I dunno I think I hit my head enough lol. The skirts would be nice for long trips for less drag I guess and having a little lower roof line does look pretty sweet I guess I would have to sit in it and see if I can stand it, being 6' 5" can get a little hard lol. Interesting hood and light combo I wish we could talk to the guys that built this car. and ya that def looks like a cover for a TPI intake.

 

To me it looks like the took an old Pontiac block before they went to the sbcs and just modded it. Now sure about that intake design, probably a cover over whatever they decided to use for an intake.

 

its got some good potential but I dunno what this guy was thinking putting wheel covers and that rear bumper on...

 

looks kinda like a jaguar xj220 fron this angle (the quarters and rear) i dunno, just my $.02

to me it just looks like not-enough-top for too-much-bottom

the headlights are sweet.. but everything else makes me want to barf.

 

I remember seeing that years ago... Always thought it looked weird. Can't decide if I like the overall thing; there are things I don't like and things I do.

 

Definately not one of the prettiest thirdgens, but it is pretty custom.
