Weird kit cars..
I just found a nice list of kitcar and hotrod manufacturers here. There's some funny stuff on that list!
How 'bout Lil' Big Rig? (Website) They produce kits to change a Chevy pick-up into a miniature
truck.. Contender for the most pointless kit ever imagined?
Or how 'bout the King of Kool (as far as I'm concerned anyways) DecoRides (Website) is a good
contender for manufacturer of the most pompous kits ever..
Check out their Figoni kit:

There's lots more there.. also some very nice kits, too. Have fun browsing..

I do like the black and orange Bugnotti on the front page of the DecoRides site. Utterly impractical obviously, but a 10/10 headturner.

Well, as far as "practical" DecoRides go... I can't help but think a modified Zephyr Delivery would make an awesome people-carrier..
Fit some extra windows, rear seats.. About as practical as any four-seat coupe... plus you'd still have a huge boot..

Really REALLY like the decorides. Couldn't afford one though.
