I agree. The blower is in the wrong place. Besides...shouldn't it be sitting side-ways?
I give the bored builder huge cudos for the effort and and thought for trying to make something cool out of a flavorless tuna bod! How does the driver get the doors open?

Over all.....I give it a :thumbsup:

I guess it is growing on me. heh! (atleast the dumb FF wheels are gone)

I just found this car at auction. It is for body only. Just another guy with a ton of FF bods trying to wring every last cent out of them.

Someone will think it's a fun diversion. It's no different than the guys who slap Pattos Earnhardt decals on anything with 4 wheels on it and sell them on E-Bay. Someone will buy 'em. It's a goofy silly kind of fun.

I like it!

If anyone has been to the drags lately, you'll see things llike this all the time...
I remember the crowds squaking when an Opel showed up with a full-house Hemi in the bay. They changed their tune once it ran a few times.

This car is could very well be the real thing-
The door issue would be resolved with either removable or scissor hinges.

Then again it could have a complete flip body.

Either way, credit is given to the individual who along with trying to make a buck--tried to make something a little different.


Cheers..

There is a quick release connection for the side pipes under the body, and the pipes swing with the door.

LTjet - Those are just crazy enough to be fun. Love those riggen wheels on the blue car. I actually like the look of the gold car.

They are both T-jets under those Imports. I had to have a pair so I could race them with my son.They're fun to race.This seller, falcon2k3, always has some neat customs for sale.
