The first two pictures : "Just because you can, doesn't mean you should". The third picture : "That can be fixed". The fourth : "That can't be fixed". The last? That thing has "possibilities".
A friend of mine saw something very similar to this in Gaborone, Botswana, of all places, in the mid-'90s. IIRC it was a DeSoto front clip on a Dodge body, being based on an "export" DeSoto, which left the factory that way, which was then shortened. It was painted bright orange, and though in a sorry state then looked to have been well executed at some previous time.
Just be thankful that these 'customizers' were working on sheet metal, and not plastic surgeons working on your wife's face lift or **** job!!!
i always wonder why you don't see anybody in the crowd just laughing themselves silly at some of these cars.
That f 1000 is plain hideous, god damn p*** the eye bleach! Somebody have their 6 year old draw the design.
I put this together for a golf course many years ago. When it was finished it had correct wheels …ect…
I built this for parades for adverti*****t for my Muffler shop in 1976. had full interior, radio, heat, license, electric antenna, auto. Great fun.. put a box of dry ice in the back, and turn on fan.!!
How about this for consideration? I saw it at a cruise night last year, the owner says it was a purpose-built school bus for a rural, snowy county here in Washington. The right door open with a lever on the dash like a bus. Windows are normal bus windows not roll downs. Four-wheel drive and duallies. A little automotive weirdness. But very cool.
No idea. I remember him saying he replaced the right door with a standard door with latch and handles and added a front seat that leans forward to access the huge backend. I'm torn, I sort wish I could ride in it as a kid, but I treasured snow days.
The very first coachwork by Giuseppe Figoni, on a 1924 Bignan ch***is. Figoni would, of course, go into partnership with Ovidio Falaschi in 1935.
There needs to be something else in this photo to provide a sense of scale. I'm certain that it's either a lot smaller or a whole bunch bigger than I'm envisioning. It's a rolling optical illusion based mostly on the size of the wheels. Are they normal sized, making the body seem hu****ous? Or do the proportions of the body make them look like cycle wheels? And speaking of the wheels, are there three or four of them? Either way, I think we know what @anthony myrick would do with it.
