Whoever fabricated that car was either a Photoshop whiz or really good with fiberglass.

The only way I know how to post a navigable FB URL link is to quote the original FB post which will then show up as a navigable URL link (as witnessed below).

Assuming that thing is real, it's pretty clear whoever did that must have REALLY hated the starting point, which looks like a '71 or '72 Cutlass. I think it's fair to say that the Cutlass, Corvette and whatever else gave up parts to this Frankenstein have all been permanently destroyed and deemed worthless.

It's real. It's been around for quite a while. I seem to remember it being a movie car for a movie or series that never got off the ground.....probably because they wasted so much money on that POS

To refer to that atrocity is as stretch. I hope I am able to unsee that thing over time.

I've seen about 4-5 threads on that ... thing ... since I've been on CO. I think it was built as a trolling exercise.

Maybe we could get up a collection and buy it, then dismantle it so we don't have to see it anymore.

Every six months someone "discovers" this car. It popped back up on FB a couple of days ago, now here. You can set your calendar by it...

I did put your photo up.

It really is like discovering Led Zeppelin; yes, you now know about it for the first time, but they've been around forever. Wait, it's like discovering a band that SUCKS that everyone knows about. Like the Plastic Ono Band.

Led who?

Probably almost time for that two door 442 wagon and the sad old super hero tv series car to reappear?
