The worst one yet.

I don't think it could possibly get much worse than this.

That's just it. The color is what really puts the icing on the cake. The front end work, the cut glass of the windshield etc. shows a lot of work and a couple interesting ideas. But that paint

It looks like they gave spray cans and paint brushes to a class of middle school art students.

That doesn't surprise me. I never saw it before and it was probably repoed because the wahoo who came up with this wonderful idea of this $17,000 paint job couldn't afford to pay back the loan for it.

That's a scary thought. So far it's the worst I've seen done to one of these cars.
Really between the awful paint and the crush velvet interior it's kinda like a 70's version of pimp my ride.
Maybe today's version in some cases but either way it's bad.

Lets see tilt nose and box channel front end. Sell all the chrome and the interior. You have the beginings of a drag car. :hick:

Uh Oh, I kinda like it.. :hick: I've been looking at Kustom Color's line of flake additives and marbelizing techniques. There are some pretty rich colors & techniques to that stuff....

I feel sorry for the repo'ed owner, they probably poured a lot of time & heart into their project.

I bet that thing looks a lot better in person than in a photo.

But then again I don't trust my sense of style yet :disappoin

It looks great considering the body is painted by a bunch of kids with sidewalk chalk.

Wow, that just goes to show you what people will do for looks. Gay as hell. I would like a vette style opening hood but that is too much.

That's just the "lowrider" style. Look at any Lowrider magazine and you'll see those tiny spoked rims, outrageous colors, excessive chrome and everthing are all the rage among people who are into that sort of thing. It was bigger a few years back than it is now.
