    I'm in the 'less please' camp on that one.

    Looks like a chopped '65 Impala.

  25. Rear glass looks like 65 Riviera, but the roof itself favors same year Impala

    The list of modifications is extensive, but like all great customs, the details are hard to spot without a stock car next to it for comparison. The biggest modification is the roof, which is radically chopped and lowered to give it an ultra-sleek look. Sheetmetal from a '65 Buick Wildcat that was sectioned and narrowed before being grafted onto the Victoria's bodywork. In back, a 1967 Camaro rear window adds a fastback profile that's so smooth you can't find the transition between stock and modified. The chassis was stretched three inches in front to accommodate a full Mercury front clip that includes frenched headlights and a '54 Chevy grille. The hood was reworked to fit flush with the modified metal as well as to tilt forward for something a little extra special. In addition, the rear fenders were extended and fitted with frenched taillight bezels that were custom made just for this car plus special bumpers that are a combination of '62 Thunderbird, '60 Corvette, and '67 Camaro pieces, all chromed for show, of course. You'll also note that the fender openings were reworked, the side trim was adjusted to emphasize the long, low look, and all the extra trim and handles were shaved.

    Her is a link if you would like more info or if you would like to see more pics....
