    This one has some appeal... could be cool in an odd way. Saw it for sale recently

  3. I saw that as well I dig it but everyone else I show doesn't. I think it would be cool as hell. Anyone know any history about it?

    For some reason, I can't stop thinking of Falcore from Neverending Story:

    Back views not bad, front I'm not taking a fancy to. I've seen worse though.

    'Interesting' is a good choice of words.

    I think what keeps me from really digging it is the headlight treatment ... although the lights themselves are round, the surrounds are squarish and make it look too much like a ****ty mid eighties streetrod fad that still hasn't died a horrible death.
    Round those out and I think it would be a whole new beast. My two cents.

    My crank's not turning. The back looks like an A Sedan sitting on a Beetle. The front looks like a street sweeper that Tammy Faye Bakker kissed.

    Geez. I havent seen a Tammy Faye Baker reference in a lot of years. You must be really old!!
    The fact that I recognize it tells you how old I am!

    I describe the rattlecan Rustoleum paint job on my '55 as a "Tammy Faye" . . . kinda okay from twenty feet away, and only from the front.

    Looks like a hot rod version of the Wonder Bug.
     
  18. I was thinking exactly the same thing.
     
  19. Come on guys... Instead of bashing that front end, we should photoshop it, to show how cool it really could be. Here's my best attempt.... it's all I could come up with.:eek:

    Just curious, what does the side view look like?

    I have a 33 Chevy Tudor Sedan that I was planning on turning into an early "lil coffinesque" type ride.

    I would, however change that front end some.....

    That's an improvement!!! Damn, that car is just **** ugly...

    Mandy Rice Davies, wow one of the better things to come out of Blimey Olde England, if I'm not mistaken. If I am, old age has crept up on me again!

    I wanna see a profile shot before I p*** total judgment, but it looks pretty awkward to me.

    Hey plowboy... Here's that 3/4 shot. I really like this car. Yeah, it has some design problems, but I think they'd iron out nicely

    Well, It better be cheap because I would change the sides too. ha ha ha

    I think if you raised the fenders up so you could lower the car down some more and channel the body over the frame you might pull it off.

    I would narrow the fenders back up as well.

    I hope you have a good set of chisels, it looks like a lot of mud on that car. ha ha ha

    It's the next generation of Chevron cars. Some builders have vision.........and others just have nightmares.
