It took lots of hard work and some high end skills to do that and I really do applaud the effort, but it looks like Homer Simpson designed it. At some point during the build you'd think the guy would have realized it was gonna be a show stopper for all the wrong reasons.

What a shame, I still wonder (big time) who is spending so much money AND time for a project like this.

The scary thing is that there has to be at least one person out there who thinks that's a nice looking car.

It says "reserve not met". Maybe they need a bigger pond to fish in and better punctuation.
