its ugly as sin and the fabricator needs to have his welder taken from him and have it thrown in a lake, just before you punch him in each of his balls. Separately. Twice each. No amount of skill or quality of craftsmanship can forgive what has been done here.

I've heard that there are penis extension treatments you can get that make your unit longer but the "extra length" remains completely flaccid. This car reminded me of that.

My bet would be that he wrecked the Comet, couldn't find or afford parts, and just happened to have a non-functional Taurus on blocks in the back yard. A little too much beer one evening, and...

Would you call that a Taurmet or a Comrus?

I concur on the Pleco assessment.

I dunno... it doesn't look that bad to me. Maybe it's sleep deprivation? Weirdest part to me is the stance... it's like the two parts weren't merged on the same plane, and there's a bit of an obtuse angle created from the two different bodies with the vertex right above the front wheel. Gives it a bit of a hunchback look. Like a pleco. So, the guy should paint it like one.

Reminds me of a rumber-bumpered MGB GT.

If only it could be used for good instead of evil.

I don't think it's THAT bad, but the fact that he did it on an old comet just ruins it.

Wait a minute....I see them. Look at the front spoiler attachment points. I knew they had to be somewhere.

Add some fins and that would be...no, wait, it would still be unredeemably ugly.

In unrelated news, there's a sudden shortage of Bondo in the world...

With a dorsal fin on the roof and some "bristles" tacked onto the hood, to simulate that 'bushy-nosed pleco' look. Then use it to promote an aquarium shop. Logically, that's the only way to redeem what has been created here.

inquiring minds want to know: Is the Taurus just skin deep or did the mad scientist graft the Taurus engine & drivetrain to that poor old Comet?
