I remember this guy from the sixties. Yep, that's right. The Grand Spaulding Dodge Norm.

I think I threw up in my mouth a little. I love old Mopars but that thing is HIDEOUS!

Mr. Norm has been back for a couple years now, they've been selling refurbished Dodge Darts with upgraded powertrains.

I gotta agree with this. Right idea, wrong execution.

He was doing that with Blue Moon Motorcars down in central FL. I'm not sure if they're still doing it.

From the rear I like this new car. From the front I'm not so sure.

He's just copying a factory paint scheme.

Correct!

The stripes on the Challenger are tolerable, but the billboard decal package on the Cuda is just as ugly now as it was in the early 70's.

And they copied the fugliest grille offered on any E-body Cuda, too.

I like them... but I have no taste.

He also welded 'Cuda 1/4 panels on and used way-too-small 71 'Cuda taillights and fender gills.
