Completely road legal.

Even better! Now, if only the Daily Fail would shut the hell up...

Another day, another stupid donk.

I found this from another GTP thread.

Not at all that surprising, I'd say.

 

[Clark]

@Legro is I wrong that I think that looks kinda cool?

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

From SEMA.

I almos tlike that.

 

[LivingWithGames]

You cannot be serious, dude...

Oh come on...

 

[Slash]

What the hell is that? The only thing I recognize is the second gen Camaro hood scoop.

 

[buickgnx88]

Looks like an early 70's Cuda, same goes for the hood scoop.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Yeah, the roof and grill scream to me "Cuda", but the mods make me do this:

 

[LivingWithGames]

Yup, you guys nailed it. It was a Cuda.

Bollocks.

Then you don't recognize a thing. It's a 1972-74 Barracuda. The grille is a dead give-away.

 

[Team THRT Drift]

The grille was the first thing I noticed.


Edit

I find this to be kinda cool. Maybe because I like dewinged MR2's....

The wing on this is just stupid..

I tried to convince myself it wasn't a Barracuda.

That is a wing? Those look like a pair of tail fins to me.

 

[Team THRT Drift]

It's a chopped wing.

Links to that car...

[Sage Ages]

It's a wing with the middle section removed.

 

[Fastcarguy]

Whats the point... if you wanted tail fins, you should have bought a big Cadillac from the 50s

 

[Legro]

As far as I know wings are supposed to cause some sort of aerodynamic effect... Guess those help with balance on straight line...

 

[Fastcarguy]

I bet they dont do much of anything... The only car i can think of with tail fins that do anything are le mans cars

 

[ImaRobot]

From what I recall with the car, the wing is hard to come by and he had damaged the center peice. I remember hearing that somewhere years ago.

 

[Team THRT Drift]

I guess the look grew on the owner, as it's still sitting like that.

Its kind of infamous for it now. Yes, I know he is still like that also, hes also changed up his rims recently as well.

 

[Legro]

Just noticed the gauges on a-pillar. I have a feeling that they weren't needed.

 

[Team THRT Drift]

It's a turbo MR2 so one is needed. The other two... I don't know.

 

[Legro]

Yes, one gauge is needed for turbo, but that isn't exactly the best place for it and three. Why three?

Why exactly is it a bad place? its very easy to glance in that direction, or to even notice it with your peripherals rather than putting it above the steering wheel, blocking other useful gauges, or putting it center dash making it farther away and less noticeable.

Thats one of the best places for it, its just that people think negatively about seeing gauges now a days because of the way its been ruined by people putting it when they dont really need it.
