Questionable modifications: pictures inside!

[WeinerSchnitzel]

How about this?

 

[Cale]

It would have been interesting if it actually went into production. It would have needed a cheap fleet towing package to succeed though. IMO

 

[Glubags]

That Volvo with the twin turbo V12 is AWESOME... and there's nothing wrong the the 280, either.

 

[Talon]

Well that was a waste of a good FC.

That Rx-7 reminds me of some other car... I thought maybe the mazda 323 resembles it a little bit, but when i searched google for pictures i found this:

Now I know where the chavs in Aberdeen get their plastic bits for their plastic cars .

And I don`t remember what each and every little japanese crap car looks like. Thats why I had to search google for pictures. But I`m still not sure what car that thing reminds me of...

Someone is going to flame me for calling the 323 a crap car. *flame shield up*

EDIT: Take a close look at the picture for the 323 (not 323f) "ZeroG" rear bumper and the "ZeroG" side skirts. They are being held up with tape...

Found this hotness on google.

It's a '92 Impreza.

No it's not, it's a 1997 Impreza WRX, built in Sydney.

Oh, I thought it was a '92 because it was on the 1st page on Google when I searched '92 Impreza.

This is a (another?) gt350 clone. But I thought you could only get Shelby mustangs as fastbacks? Those rims are made for old mustangs, right? I still think they don`t belong on a 40+ years old car. The seller says the car is a perfect condition original car, but he also says it`s a gt 350 clone. It`s a `65 by the way.

After looking on wikipedia for the answer for my coupe\fastback question, I found this: 1966 saw the introduction of non-white colors—including blue, red, green and black. Other changes include special rear quarter-panel windows replacing the factory extractor vents, functional brake scoops on each side and optional automatic transmissions, as well as the addition of an optional Paxton supercharger. Which means this car has a gearbox that was unavailable in a real GT350. But I can`t find anything about a `65 gt 350 coupe...

Why do something this evil to such a good looking car . The "pimp" rims, the steering wheel (think they call these grant gts.), the whole damn stereo and that really homemade amplifier. Cars with old chevrolet smallblocks don`t need any stereos. Just ask my old corvette .

EDIT: Does the mustang have the brake ducts from a `66 gt 350 as well?

 

[Tornado]

Other than the slushbox and faux GT350 stickers, that Mustang is pretty pretty good.

 

[ND4SPD]

The Mustang ain't bad at all. It's more like a restomod. Sure it could do without the shelby stickers and slushbox but it could be way worse.

 

[The Vanishing Boy]

-> Here's my summary:

- Tundra Dualie Diesel = WIN (although it was a real factory show truck)

- Mustang = PASS (the slush & faux Shelby stickers killed it a bit)

- Impala, Impreza, & FC3S = FAIL (just failed)

Cuz yo need a real big, real old car in tha 'hood so you get 'spect.

Respect for what, selling the most drugs and whoring out the most women?

 

[Thatman]

the steering wheel for the Impala is the same one thats in the Eclipse!

 

[Keef]

 

[motortrend]

I've seen much worse

 

[WeinerSchnitzel]

Yeah, the Honda doesn't look that bad. Just get rid of the roof rack.

 

[Ibonibo]

wow the mps is polished to the max

the mustang is nice. maybe the original parts are all from a original shelby, but i doubt it a bit as those cost a looot

Nice reck schnitzel

 

[Tornado]

What exactly is the benefit of having that much wheel lip, besides looking like a tool?

 

[Ibonibo]

to scretch it more easily

What a question

 

[CDailey]

Pretty sure I went to college/live about 5 minutes from this guy. There's a TSX here in town that looks exactly like that.

The #1 Worst modified car I've ever seen was a Taxi Yellow '93 Chevy Caprice with about 22-25' rims....with the rear skirts still on.

People who randomly throw 22's on ANY car are obviously too stupid to be allowed to drive. I mean, if you're dump or blind enough to put rims that are bigger than your car is tall on your car, then what's to stop you from drinking and driving? They're like four big signs saying "I'm an idiot and I'm doing this 'cause I saw it on a rap video and the rapper said if I put 22' rims on my Impala, I'll be cool, so I did."

Thank god someone said this!

You better be careful. Plenty of vultures out here, they'll pick your bones clean before morning.

The thing is though, SuperShouden's 100% right. I've seen the same dumbass moves done here in Australia on a Hyundai Accent....20" rims on a bloody Accent.....that person's IQ was obviously lower than the amount of gears in the Hyundai's gearbox.

Listen, I totaly don't agree with what you said. Why I say this is because this has been going on for quite some time,way before rappers even mentioned it. Also,on some cars I think they look good but,others I wonder why they even bothered. Many people like different things wich is why I don't bash them like you guys do. I know many people dissagree with me but,I don't care because it's my opinion. Earlier I seen one right in front of my house and, I always wondered how do they get into these things. The car looked good but it just does'nt look like it should have been in Brooklyn.

 

[Zenith]

Excessively large rims never look good. Ever. Not on a Humscalade, not on a Civic, not on a Charger.

 

[Talon]

I gotta say though, that's really cool how they got the rim into the engine bay like that. I wouldn't call that a questionable car.

 

[Northstar]

All they did was cut out the wheel well, rather stupid if you ask me.

 

[Tornado]

It pretty much is stupid. Its going to fling crap into the engine bay every time you drive it, meaning the guy probably has to polish the inside every time he gets out of the cab.
