I dunno what to think honestly. Decent workmanship I rekon - but damn, that's butchering at its finest too.

WTF were these people thinking!

the workmanship isnt that great, the sides dont flow right, and those huge paint bubbles on that door = trouble cracked paint = bondo

if done right this could have been a cool car, but it just doesnt look right

It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it's alot better than someone leaving an old car behind a barn to just rot. I see that alot....

I saw this car in person at the Dream Cruise. For some reason it doesn't photograph that well. In person the body lines look good.
All in all kind of a neat niche vehicle if you were looking for a cool classic to add in with your fleet of limo's. Right along with your stretched Hummer, and stretched F250 (with Cab over camper on back!).

I think that would fit into the resto/MOD class!!! That's a HUGE mod right there. Not too bad, little bit of "fix me up" and a purdy neat limo, IMO, but on the same hand it does lower the value of the car in my eyes.
