Congrats on the win with your Cuda.

As for the concept Charger:

I found an article for this car showing some of the build.

I kind of like it. I would have changed the rear quarter windows, but I can dig it.

The owner is from my hometown in Kansas.  I have seen it out only a few times since it was built....

Nice.  I've seen a couple pics that thing before but I thought it was a photoshop job.

[Bad B-rad]

I love the rear view of that car, very nice.
For me, the scallops on the doors and hood are a bit too deep and square, thats just my opinion.
But the rear view is spot on, very cool.

I'm sure that it took some fabrication skills to get there but that is a hideous car. The proportions are odd, the grille looks strange and the color looks like the work of the discount bin at ACE hardware.

Tell us how you really feel

[Kern Dog]

That is the risk when someone builds a custom car. There will be opinions of all kinds. I'd love to have those fab skills though.

More pics of the Cuda please!!!

I'm not a great fan of it....buts its clearly a Charger. Would have preferred that to the four door "pretender" they actually put into production.

Glob/sour cream dollop of a front spoiler, vestigial sails, and a little peeved that Batman gets to drive whatever. In a word, cartoonish. Bloated. Forget Batman--more like a Roger Rabbit conception, or a puffer fish.

That's a little harsh, don't you think?  

It looks like the builder stayed within a lot of factory LX dimensions.  It's basically an outer-skin restyling.  Other than the missing B-pillar I don't think the LX unibody structure is actually shortened or hacked up under there.  Same roof, front & rear windows, dash, the bumpers and radiator support/engine bay haven't moved, etc.  

Aside from the missing B-pillar the changes look like they could easily pass modern aerodynamics and crash-testing.  And the end result is done as one cohesive item, not just some mismatching chunks of old & new bodywork siamesed together.


It's much easier to make a good-looking car when you have a total clean sheet to start with and the engineering department isn't vetoing 9/10ths of your ideas.

[Laowho]

Ok, it looks like the 255/70r/15s on our 70, except that the air is everywhere blurring/softening/rounding its famous lines. It's been squattified. No doubt steroids were involved. Looks like a caricature you'd find in a comic. BUT, maybe if it was green? Help us out, AESTHETICALLY, not structurally or whether it might possibly "pass" modern aerodynamics standards. Wait, you did call it a "cohesive item." Now that's harsh. Neither do I understand how it can be that, if in fact 9/10ths of it got lost in committee, ANY judgment of it wouldn't be at least mathematically harsh. Just sayin.   But I'll relent--it looks bulbous, like it was retaining water then decided to add lip augmentation. You know...a Car Dashian.
