Default OK you ain't seen a 65 like this before

Truly different. Not sure what I think about the outside. Interior is dated for sure, but somebody really carried out their vision on this one. Lot of work went into it.

Originally built by Dave Stucky - I've seen pictures of it before, it's definitely a period piece.

Not a big fan of that one, but can appreciate the work that went into it. If that car was flat black, it might fit well on Mad Max or The Punisher.

Good Lord. Those wheel openings are an odd shape. What a ton of work for such an interesting result. I agree 63Gpman, it could easily be a Road Warrior car. "Gotta hand it to ya, mate...the last of the Pontiac 389 Interceptors! A piece of history! Would have been a shame to blow it up."

OMG. I can't decide if I like it or not. If it was black and had "regular looking" interior, I'd definitely say yes. But being yellow?

I did not even start on the I would do X different thing. I would just not do that. Maybe something subtle if I put some slightly too big tires on. I respect the guy for trying something.

"OK you ain't seen a 65 like this before"
Yep never seen anything like that

I thought Barris could phuc up some neat old stuff,
but this one could be a contender for tops.

Now I'm going to have nightmares all night

I was waiting on someone else to start this post. Nasty is all I can say. And a waste of a good 65 Pontiac! I don't ever remember something like that being 'in style'.

Custom work or not that car is spanked ass ugly.

I am not a fan, it was ART to begin with, now it's like spraying a Rembrant with rattlecan paint.

It'd work better with a belt or two.
