    I am a big fan of having something that stands out in a crowd!!!! I think you have a ride that will. Be pretty cool when finished......But yes.......is a bit on the ugly side. Good luck.

    If its so ugly, what did you buy it for?

    If it weren't for sitting so tall at the doors, it might not look so bad. Looks like an old TR2 I think

    Someone please donate a car cover and cover both of them up:eek:
     
  11. Well, if the body is fiberglass it's probably another homebuilt variation on the cut-down sports cars guys made in the '50s - what's the frame and the dash cluster, more Hudson stuff?

    It looks like an overgrown Triumph TR3. I think it's COOL! Clean it up and enjoy having something unique. Fuck all the "cookie cutter" rods.......

  15. Have you considered posting this in the thread above this one - "The worst car you ever owned " ? I'm with Mazooma , It's what an armored car would look like if they came in a convertible

    Kinda looks like one of the Fuehrer's Halftracks humped Churchill's Triumph!!!

    I'd play up the idea of it being a Hot Rodded Wehrmacht Staff car!
    Go with WW2 German "Splinter-B" Camo, aggressive non-directional tires on artillery wheels, blackout lights and a hot vintage Mercedes engine...or the SBC/SBF/SBM variant! LOL

    Scratch "Adolph loves Eva" on the glovebox door and sell it on Ebay for millions.
