It's cool. Although with the avaliability of '70 Coronet fenders, a repro Superbird nose would have fallen right on there, so why build a nosecone from scratch?
Rear window is a neat addition too.

I can appreciate the fact its something different, but its not something i would have done. I like the wheels what are they? oversized welds?

Why is it that people don't like those wheels? Would you rather prefer those boring ass ralleys with red polyglass tires?

That was up at a local car show where I live. It's a 318 driven car. Paint is very nice on it. but.... it just wasn't my cup of tea. it had HEMI badges on it as well.

:smilielol: :smilielol: :smilielol: :smilielol:... That is just too funny....SICK  :eek2: for sure but, too DAMN funny!!!  :smilielol:

The car? Well...... Let just say it's not my cup-o-tea. Not crazy about the quarter panel graphic but, the paint schemes ok I guess and it get's an "A" for effort.

All that work, and UGH - those exhaust tips!  :icon_smile_angry:  Looks like they came from home depot.

The more I look at it, it isn't a bad car at all, & there was a lot of work done to it that goes unnoticed at a glance. I can't get used to seeing the tail end of the Coronet with the wing though. The rear window has me baffled, I can't tell if it's a plug, if it's an E-Body as suggested, or whatever. I do think the 4 door rear window is larger than this one, but not sure. Personally, I like the stock, wavy, rear window & would leave that in place. The paint scheme & color choice is also very cool.

I like Coronets, & everytime I see one done nicely, I think maybe I should keep mine & sell the Barracuda.   :shruggy:

for the record, you guys pick this stuff apart just as much as we do on the aero board (it was suggested otherwise.)

Which is even funnier since this car is something that never existed. Who can say what is "right"? I'd drive it everywhere (but I'd paint it all one color first - I'm not a fan of the two-tone look but that's just me).

Sarcasm detector, that's a real good invention.

HA see?  We're not the bad guys!


OK, we are.


I'm not a fan of the two-tone, but either color would look great on the car.

I like it.  If you're going to build a one of none, Why not?

I thought it was the new project you were working on Mike hahah.  At first glance it looks a lot like a Daytona.

The guy who owned that THING must have a body shop, because his key ring looked like a used car lot ring. Lots of paper tags and keys. Probably for sale and Inside wasant that great Saw it the same place as Khryon. It shure sparked up some interest though.
