This showed up in my Mecum e-mail blast today and is pretty bad ***!
I'm not usually a fan of resto mod cars but this one has a great look to it - I hope they add more photo's to the listing soon. http://www.mecum.com/lot-detail.cfm?...gn=CH1014-S161

Not liking the ground effects. To me it doesn't fit the lines of the car

That car has been around for awhile. Not my cup of tea.

I like what they did with the roof and rear spoiler.

Wicked looking car.
I'd be afraid to drive it on the street though. Look at how low the intercoolers are to the ground. They're lower than the front chin spoiler and will be the first thing that will hit the ground and be destroyed. Second, I don't like that the builders deviated from the renderings on the front end color scheme. The rendering had the grills painted to match the stripe and had the same color highlight around the lower valance cut outs.

I actually sat in this car last night. Builders are really nice guys. The car itself would be a lot of fun on a Saturday night. I would say the quality of the car is no better than average driver. It's missing the small details that make car special.

Hows the blue car with the LS motor? I would have thought the black car was going to be a very high quality show winning build.

The blue car is very nicely done and I wouldn't mind calling that one mine. That car was built by a member here. Hotrodzz.

Like the color. Stink bug stance. No custom suspension work to make it sit correctly for the fat ass rubber out back. Spoilers are not quite right for the body lines of the car. Do like the front valance metal work. Would like to see finished pics under the hood.
