Ugh...I'll keep my word for word opinion to myself on this one  :P

I'll just say that is a prime example of the issue with customizing something over the top to suit your own (crazy) taste...your buying audience is drastically smaller when you decide to sell (pretty much guaranteed to lose money at sale time when you do a project like that)...how many people are gonna' have the same thought of "OMG, that's awesome!" when it comes to something like that??

That is one weird looking car.... it almost looks like it was made for some kinda movie set. BUT replace the front end and you have a low mileage car!

I liked the line: "No rust on this car"

Really? What's that brown stuff on the hood next to the fibreglassed cowl induction scoop? Bird crap??

And who put a plaster headliner in? Did that really sound like a good idea? Let's put heavy plaster over head so it rattles loose and drops on the driver's head!
