Questionable modifications: pictures inside!

[Joey D]

I rather like the Rolls Royce SUV (Escalade maybe?).

 

[Jim Prower]

Saleen? 360? SLR?

I'd be apt to guess SW20...

 

[bondy_1625]

you know those lights do look a lot alike the c6 corvette lights as well as the 360's....

 

[Flerbizky]

I don't think that's questionable - And if it WAS, you'd have to include the Porsche Whale Tails as well :-)

 

[TheCracker]

Don't think it's a repost:

 

[Joey D]

Now that is ugly. I wonder how much the front end to a Rolls costs?

How much is a large tub of bondo?

 

[Jim Prower]

You have GOT to be kidding me.

that's ALL bondo? wow. that IS questionable.

I don't hate "Playas." I find them having hilariously bad taste. and poor judgement. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't laugh as much.

 

[Joey D]

Wow I'm bit impressed they did that with bondo.

 

[Metar]

Wow I'm bit impressed they did that with bondo.

Yeah, I'm suprised they got the thing to look so "professional" with such materials.

 

[TheCracker]

It's cost the builder $150k so far.

It also has a $23,000 572 CID engine - which eventually, when finished will have 1000-1200hp, but it seemingly has no brakes

 

[Jim Prower]

And here's where the poor judgement comes in....Pretty typical of Donk-type cars, really. Big power, no way to harness it. One day, he decides to really see what it can do, and rips the microcracked centers out of his 30" wheels....

 

[Barracuda]

Please everybody. Save the classics, kill the donkers

$150,000
- $23,000 (engine)
- $20,000 (car, total guess)
- $10,000 (wheels, total guess)
________

$97,000 (bondo)

 

[Jim Prower]

Try $20K for the wheels, $12K for the paint, $7K for 'bags, and $450 for Roller headlights. + the engine.

Who in their right mind would pay a more than a VW Rabbit's worth for wheels? Other than a Formula 1 team or the USAF, that is.

((By the way, Nos. taken directly from the link in TheCracker's post))

EDIT: After quick calculation, I've come up with $87,550 of Bondo. and stereo equipment. So, DWA's guess was within range.

 

[Tornado]

The funny part is that the front of that car looks better and more Rolls like than the actual Phantom does.

 

[Jim Prower]

Just wait 'till water gets into the Bondo...

 

[exigeracer]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!

 

[V1P3R]

It's protected isn't it?

Argh... that looks like near me, at least from the bridge design.

 

[Jay.]

I know.... I'll buy myself a beautiful supercar for everybody to gawp at.


....Then I'll cover half of it up!



WHY?



If you've got the money to buy a car like that you can afford to repair the odd stone chip.
And who gives a toss about squashing a few flies?

It also doesn't seem to have a driveshaft......Thus the car is an ugly waste of a poor caprice that doesn't do anything but sit and get uglier by the minute....

 

[Gashlycrumb]

Nothing questionable about that, in fact, there's nothing cooler than having a matching trailer to your car.vision).

I saw this at the museum I went to the other day. Not quite sure about it though.....

 

[land sea air]

if by not sure you mean most awesomest thing EVAR!!! then yes I agree

 

[stumpydino]

saw this thing few years ago

well, looks like hes had it painted since, not as bland i guess lol still same ol lumpy kit tho

interestingly whatever he has under the hood, it is registered as having a 2.6l engine

 

[Danny]

Two 1.3 Rotarys?

 

[Cap'n Jack]

The wheels on those RX-7's are sinking into gaping holes!

 

[toyomatt84]

Two 1.3 Rotarys?

Or a 2.6L RB26DETT.

 

[stumpydino]

thats what i was thinking..

Perhaps the owners do. Not everyone wants to have stone chips in their cars they pay good money for.

 

[Jay.]

I think I prefer Dannys two 1.3 Rotarys. One for each drive wheel.

That's fair enough I suppose, but they could easily hit a bird or rabbit or whatever.
What use is a cover then, when you've got a nice little dent in your wing.
