Clay, you're easy to please! I reckon the overflow can is the best part of the whole sorry mess.

Re: The Horror of it.
Pretty hard to figure what make of car was sacrificed for what looks like a "Back To The Future" nightmare car. My guess would be maybe Camaro/Firebird basis. On the plus side it's easy to find in a parking lot.
Design just had waaay too many ideas tacked on. And what's with the afterthought of, hey, where's the trunk lid? The small opening and ugly hinges add to the overall picture of poor planning. Same for the front overflow bottle, or is that the emblem, it's the Prestone-mobile.

This car it is loaded! I mean it has a piece of every other cars you can imagine... :D I think they used a Pontiac Fiero as base, looking a the triangular piece of plastic above the side mirror. I need to admit that who made it, has a great potential as craftsmanship, no doubt about that.:)

Re: The Horror of it.
I agree with Brizio I think Fiero. That was the frist thing that came to my mind.

Who's putting that one on their bench to replicate?? I think Brizio is right about the Fiero, then we have some Mustang, Nissan, T-Bird, everything but the kitchen sink! I keep looking at it like a bad accident.

Re: The Horror of it.
Time to put this to bed. It's based on a 3rd Generation F-body, an early to mid 80s Pontiac Firebird.
I don't know what the poor Ponti did in a previous life to deserve this.
Cheers, and I hope your eyes have recovered by now.

Re: The Horror of it.
I was going to comment. It has to be a 3rd Generation F-Body Camaro or Firebird Convertible to suffer the fate this poor car has suffered. Guy is a great craftsman, but needs to go to Automotive Design School first. Poor car. One less 3rd gen on the road. :(
