It'd be even cooler if it had a little speaker that played V8 sounds whenever you accelerated. Would be fun down at the golf course. :lol:

Screw that, all it needs is this 1/3 scale Ford 302 that actually runs!

In the Phoenix area? Are they NUTS!?!?
BTW That looks like where I used to live...in a stucco house.






(they're all stucco!!)

No way, I live in a stucco house too.
Oh wait, they're all stucco. :sly:
Looks like North Phoenix-Scottsdale, but it could easily be Mesa, or Peoria. They'd have a hell of of time on some of the choppy roads around here though. :dunce:

Ford Taurus.

Hideous, just downright hideous!

Looks like something out of Grand Theft Auto San Andreas.

I agree, then let's blow it up with a RPG. :lol:

Haha, oh wow!

More images here. :scared::nervous:

What moronic idiot 🤬 would do this to a car?! Tacky, tasteless and dumb. :facepalm:
 
The front quarters need to be separate of the bumper, side skirts need some trimming. Make the rear side windows smaller, and give it moar low.

I can really see the potential in the design. Too bad I lack the skills to shop my ideas into it.
