But it’s the older body style.

hanging with balchick is an HUGE plus if we get a cavi, or sunfure.

finding something manual would be a good idea, extending the shifter with the deep dish wheel would be needed, custom long throw.

-painting as many engine parts while they are still on the car  
-the use of as much lumber as possible  
-no use of any measuring equipment for the build, eye ball everything  
-def blend bumpers into fenders/sideshirts  
-diy t-tops/sunroof/targa

Well if your putting “functional” items on there that make worse than stock… Put skinny tires up front and slicks on the rear (since it will be FWD most likey) Also Put stacks(with flappers of course) going up the A pillars along the windshield…that are not hooked up to the exhaust of the turbos

So far this option seems to be winning out, unless people give us more options.

Definitely get us pics :tup:

How about this Sunfire posed as a rally car? To me what really makes a car blow is when the owner tries to make it something it can never really be. We’ve all seen the shit craftsmanship on cars a million times before, old news. I think what would set this car off is some amazing craftsmanship of the build contrasted with the idea of fighting physics; ala the ‘turbo feeding a turbo mentality’ as mentioned in one of the opening posts.

it needs as many switched options as possibly, maybe separate switches for each headlight, and preferably switches typically used in a house.

and it def can not have flush wheels, wide body with rims like sunken battleships, super shitty looking

i dont think any shielding gas should be used for any of the welding either. just so it comes out that much worse.

-A stack of multi color/brand/diameter throttle body spacers.

-DIY v-shaped strut bar, but don’t tie the tip of the “v” to anything. Just let it hang over the motor and flex. Bonus points for using only one fastener at each end, drilled into the side of the shock tower.

I like to color of that Cavy, but it’s a 4 door.

LOL, should it be colored & themed around a soda brand? Or some other food product?
