If only it weren't a scale model...the Challarostang

I think the thing is total badass. Especially from the rear end view. I love the recessed backglass. I'd drive it around like an a-hole, with open headers.

Click again on Challarostang in the top left.

I think the roof and rear glass doesn't flow well with the rear of the car. Then again, even a Ford's ass is better than the Camaro's...

Shoulda just took a Challenger and left it alone. As far as the Stang and Suckaro...well, 2 wrongs don't a right make.

It just doesn't do anything for me.

Fail.


Now, if the guy did a Challenger with the Stang nose, or a Stang with the Dodge's rear...now THAT I'd care to see...

Its just the stang rear end on a challenger. Really dosen't look like anything special.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

Yeah I can't see it on the first link either. Dunno what happened, but this does work, at least for now, instead of linking to the gallery itself, scroll down a bit for the other pics.
