One more example of how box flares make everything awesomer:

My friend built an '83 that came with a anemic 302 and swapped in a late(r) 5.0 H/O with some mods and a T5. Had much illegal fun in that thing!

Nothing wrong with the box flare over the rear wheel. The "let's tack a camaro front fascia on this fox body" brilliance is 7 levels of wrong though.

In reply to DILYSI Dave:

Right! the front end looks like a red, swollen thumb you just smashed with a hammer!

Whenever I see something like this, and I think of how many people dream and talk, yet never do, I go "Good on you"! And hope that they learn from their errors and come back with a straight win.

Box flares make the pain of looking at this awesomer

This is GRM......we build stuff. Good idea, bad idea, we should encourage people to try making and doing things. Sitting on the couch, making dismissive, snarky statements about other people's efforts is jalopnik's job.

EBay - 1980 Renault 5 Turbo Type 1

In reply to JoeyM:

Stop spying on me!

The Turbo II is way way cool, but they need to put down the crack pipe on the price. 41 watchers and no bids No surprise. They come up on this continent not too infrequently in the upper $30's to low $40's and they are a lot more common in Europe. Unlike the various Group B homologation cars they built nearly 5,000 Turbo's and Turbo II's

I did these sketches back in the day. I would still love to try it

Starion with widebody kit.

How about one box flare on our Lemons car?

Raw

And painted

The other 3 may be coming soon, depending on tire choice

That's a guys photochop idea of how he wants to do his LS1 swapped StarQuest. I had the exact same idea for my 351-W swapped StarQuest minus the side exit exhaust up front. Mine would have come out just behind the doors. LOL

lol starion widebody is kind of ridiculous considering the car has one of the widest stock box flare widebodies in a production car.
