Amazing, all that and only $5500, of course that doesn't meet the reserve. Curious there aren't any bids!

frmula505 · 09-24-2009, 09:55 PM

I kind of like it. It's different.

monolith · 09-24-2009, 10:21 PM

Aside from the weird effect of the nose- I kind of like it.

**Corts60** · 09-24-2009, 10:48 PM

I think it's pretty bad ass. I would never build something like that, but I like it. All except the crappy rear wheel well cuts.....he coulda done something a little better there.

BR3W CITY · 09-25-2009, 08:26 AM

if the rear wheels fit IN the body instead of the ghetto-fab cutouts it would be better....
that and the nose doesn't work at all!

OLDIRON69 · 09-25-2009, 09:09 AM

The thing is that IF the motor is actually a 302, Camaro nuts will pay crazy cash for it by itself!

Bottomline: It's the wrong type of vehicle for the fenderless/hoodless look.

This is what he was going for but hit wide of the mark:

63deluxfleet · 09-25-2009, 05:49 PM

if a baja bug and a carry all had an aborted baby with down syndrome this is what it would look like

hewlett2002000 · 09-27-2009, 10:19 PM

hey yall. i like it. it looks bad ass.

SSWfleetside · 09-25-2009, 09:51 PM

on the plus side, it looks a little like an old coach bodied modified.
except for the nose, which is a little creepy lookin.

iehotrod · 09-25-2009, 11:18 PM

that looks like a high school project gone bad..... what a waste of burb.

joe231 · 09-26-2009, 11:39 AM

Less than an hour left.... And no bids...

kdrodworks316 · 09-26-2009, 12:17 PM

In the true spirit of no steel is sacred, I have to admit that I like it. It needs a giant 6 banger cummins diesel engine to finish it out, maybe even like a 3406 cat motor. I think its a cool idea that just missed the mark
