It’s one of those things that’s so close to being cool too. A little playing in photoshop and I bet it could look pretty cool. Step 1, major re-work on those front fenders/headlights.

FYI, I found that because I’ve always wanted to do a kit car. Even if it resembeles a a $100k car when it’s not, the craftsmanship has to be one hell of a ride. That car, however, just had one too many “good ideas”. And I agree, a few adustments that car can take on a whole new shape. Till then, I want to hit it with a sledgehammer.

i was reading this post before i even looked at your user name. my first response was “grand island? why grand island”

then i saw it was by you joel, and i realized you picked grand island because its REALY hard to toss burning kit cars onto the 90 from an overpass, so grand island makes sense

yeah, i totally forgot the burning fiero launcher (re: cow launcher a la holy grail). first person to hit the refinery next to the tolls wins a denny’s brunch with me, as well as a typical, worthless trip to M&M’s… replete with a courtesy tetanus shot
