    His roll bar is all squares, and sits far below his head.

    WTF??

    That is awful.

    What's the white-ish car in the background of the first pic?

    P1800 with a "kustom" front end ?

    The galvanized interior panels are different- were they supposed to receive a covering, or was that the planned end result?

    I honestly wasn't expecting it to be that bad when I clicked the link.

    Highlights for me were the galvanized sheet interior panels and a floor that appears to be wood,

    Haha, I think I'm offended GPS thought one of us built it.

    maybe he was thinking that cars look better when you put galvanzied sheet metal all over the inside? it is kinda wacky....

    From the ad: "Granted Im no expert."

    That much is painfully obvious.

    He's also built a Celica. More pictures of the cars in the background too!

    I hope he doesn't have any plans to modify that Triumph that is shown in both listings.

    If he built these for SCCA autocross, which class was he planning to run? With custom bodywork like that I would think he would have to run in some kind of mod class?

    I clicked on it and, well, you know that sour taste you get right before you puke?

    It did occur to me that a car like that would be a real eye-catcher at a Lemons event or Babe rally.

    It was fuel injected originally, but the guy I got the car from had sold the computer and pulled out alot of the wiring. I bought another computer and tried to piece the harness back together with no success so I ended up fabricating my own carb adaptor and did away with all the fuel injection stuff.

    I see a lot of red wire on that engine. LOL

    It would also enrage the angry hordes to burn it with fire.

    From the Celica ad: "These pictures were taken right after I painted it so dont expect it to look this nice now."

    All kidding aside, these are very beautiful cars with exceptional bondo work. A true master of his craft.

    I can see this thing hitting highway speeds and pieces of it start breaking away like a runaway pinata.
