Sam,

I would be afraid of getting "whacked" anywhere in that thing!

I've got to admit, the grille and front fenders make it a classic.

Wow. Not sure how anyone will top that one. I see they eliminated the rust in the rockers...by eliminating the rockers.

They not only eliminated the rusty rockers, they also eliminated good taste as well as any style the car originally had. Wasted a good Grille(form what?) too.

I'd say that grille is from an old 60's Mercedes sedan.

The spinners on the wheel caps really make this one sweet ride!!

Oh c'mon folks. Your looking at a classic in creative modification using elder automotive parts that would have gone to the crusher otherwise. Probably doesn't have much of a problem with overheating either. heh

OK, y'all might find this a little strange, but I find myself trying different things in my mind to make this design work.

So if you add a cowl to cover the battery and foot well area, and maybe clean up the grill area a bit. Then detail out the remaining exposed engine bay, then it wouldn't look TOO bad..

I sold my unmolested 69 TR6 over 15 years ago while I was living in Anchorage - I had the feeling the guy who bought it was wondering how he could convert it to a 4-season, back roads fishing and hunting wagon. I was real glad to see it wasn't my old car in that ad (at least I hope not!)
