| Dispenses buckshot medication for all undead patients. | The company (don't know who at the moment) is planning a production run of about 100 vehicles. It sits on a Corvette C6 chassis, front styled like a 57 Chevy, side like a 58, rear like a 59. Hence the designation "789". ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I'd have one, but maybe not in those colors.

Car: Coming soon Rep Power: 22 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I seem to be alone here, but I love it !! I think it's absolutely fantastic. No, it isn't perfect, I also a think that the seats, the windscreen and the mirrors could be more retro looking and the taillights should be a bit smaller. And the tailpipes should be more apart. But still....I think it's awesome. Seriously want one of those.

| Lazy Head Dude | Love it, but not a big fan of the rear. Never liked that style.

Rep Power: 0 ![]() | That is the ugliest thing I have ever seen. Why have they welded the front and upper half(ish) of a car onto a different car? And why haven't they bothered to repaint the body panels so they are the same colour? I'm lost for words...

| I'd rather have seen it with a slightly modernized Corvette C1 or C2 body. Now that could have been quite awesome. This is just...ridiculous... | |

| ^ will bore you to death | I'd like it if they put the old windshield in it, I'll change the wheels myself . Classic cars look very odd without steep windshield, and old Chevy's look very odd without the wrap around windshields.Otherwise it's the best looking I've ever seen the '59 I've ever seen It was created by Gene Langmesser at Kanter Concepts, ans is being produced by N2a Motors.edit: I keep looking at the car and I'm fighting not to post all the nit picks.
