Not really a fan of the look of the rear but I do sorta like the way the front end looks. Like it or not someone did some quality work and spent a fair amount of time doing the work. I applaud the craftsmanship and effort.

The front end looks to be an F body Camaro nose grafted on. Might be the most valuable part of the car.

I'd never do this myself, but having said that....... They changed the proportions of the front and rear but did nothing with the height. Needs a top chop to lower the look. Still would be ugly, but IMHO more palateable.

Agree....but some "purist" crowds dont get it. Goofy stick on stuff that comes from a "corvette" supplier are ok but anything custom is "molested". Not sure why that term is used with cars
Had they done something with the nose it could look ok.

I always judge a sports car by the amount of overhang, and I guess one guy decided to take action and loose the extra weight of the style.
I had to smile that the side strakes were left on after all that body work. I guess it is some kind of track car, since few would chop off the crumple zones that help protect in daily traffic unless they didn't mind auto crashes and pain, or need to auto cross just a little bit better.

That is a creative way to build a one of one car. If it has the stock motor in it, it should scoot along fairly well.
