Some will love it, some will hate it.

For me it needs painted before I play my hand.

I think that if it was finished to a high standard then it would be an impressive novelty car...

...but if it ends up shabby then it's a disaster.

It reminds me of the cars on the old Milky Way ad that made a recent re-appearance. That was one of my favourite ads as a kid.

The car needs to be painted candy blue with metal flake paint.

'think i like it but i am on beer number 6 and counting '

I'm on beer number one and I hate it. More to the point I doubt my five year old son would fit in it and my eleven year old definitely wouldn't. It's an impressive piece of work if you like that sort of thing But I doubt whether it'll be anything other than undriveable due to lack of headroom.

I like it. Shame its rear engine though. Could be a very nice custom. the roof chop looks like its been done quite well.

I quite like it. Not sure on the rear fins though (maybe slightly too big) and i really dont like the doors opening different ways.





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

No truth in rumours of quality control problems at the Rootes Linwood plant.
