Yeah, the pictures are pretty awful and don't really show off how epic this car is. Not my problem, though.

Short of the slightly wierd doors, that's a fantastic build. I can certainly appreciate the amount of work that went into that!

If it's one thing that America is good at, it's building things like this.

I appreciate the level of engineering that went into it but it looks horrid.

Looks are one thing, because it's hard to take one of the most beautiful cars of the 60s and jam the engine in someplace completely different while still preserving its overall looks. I think they did a great job with it, though. From the back it looks like a rocket.

But did they kill a Corvette Stingray for that or does it just look like one? I hate it when people mod great classic cars ... that´s like killing oldtimers ...

I'm enormously impressed by the amount of the work and the talent required for the car - I need to to see more pics before decided if I actually like the looks of it, but that doesn't take anything away it.
