You don't know what my current project is. Melt 1/2 an American car into 1/2 a Holden and make it happen like it should have in the 60's.
Oh yeah, and I started with a 1 owner low mileage rust free perfect car. Then cut it into about 5 pieces.
My favourite is the 1 owners as they have less dodgy repairs. The EH Limo was built from two perfect rust free one owner cars. Chopped with no
remorse.
In my opinion, rusty cars get original rebuilds, and clean original cars get cut to pieces and modified. Chop chop chop.

I can see where the guy was going with it, but he really messed up the proportions for the front.
that's why it looks so bad, but from the front windscreen rearwards it looks ok

I'm sure it seemed like a good idea at the time.
Looks like it's just missing wings and a runway.
