Wow. Very... ummm... interesting.

I'll bet aero-wise, it's worse than a stock 73/74, and really, that nose is just ugly. Great color combination at least.

Personally the front end reminds me Kitt.

Of course you have to give these owners a lot of credit,that's a lot of work being done to these cars,(not that no one is aware of that)its their car and their imagination at work.And just think,all those whacked out ,off the wall, and ugly creations people built in the 70s are worth A LOT of money today,these guys are probably future gem holders. :beer:


Anyone know where i can order a superbird wing?........ :lol:

Yea, that does really resemble that generation of the Javelin! Actually, I kinda like the black car. Loose the bumper guards and swap out the wheels (not my personal style) and I'd drive her.
