I don't hate the vision, I have a use for just such a vehicle. I am disappointed in how poorly the conversion was done. Looks like there's nothing supporting the nose, and they chose a C30 with an automatic transmission. Yuck.

ICYMI, even the "side-by-side" is a C3 of sorts.

Im gonna play devils advocate here. Lets.say the seller had a rear ended C3 with a rotted out frame, basically a worthless car, so they had a little fun with what they had. Is it Bubba? Well yeah, of course it is. Will it do exactly what the seller claims, draw attention? 100%. Ive seen worse uses for what was left of a C3.

Yeah, OK.
I'd hate to think one day that could happen to my C3.
Perish the thought.
