Gorgeous. Looks like an XKE.
|
Took a xke body --it was done many years ago --i just changed it all around to my liking --its really turning out slick thanks dennis
|
Is that a "stock" wheelbase C-2, C-3 chassis?
|
Yes stock wheelbase---98"--but i moved the seats back 4" and with the coke bottle shape it has a real sleek look thanks dennis
|
Back in the mid 60's when I had my '60 vette, a buddy had an E-Jag.....loved it too......
and so yours gets a cyber kiss too......and those wheels are MINE, send them IMMEDIATELY!!!!!! |
Very cool! What motor?
|
thanks so much --car was started sometime ago --the body shape is now totally different ---i have always loved the xke and the c2/3 vette so we married the two---SO NOW I CAN PISS BOTH GROUPS OFF --HAHAHA --GLAD YOU LIKE ---PS THOSE WHEELS ARE ALSO GETTING A KNOCK OFF CENTER------the whole thing is just --bitchin
|
here is a pic of what i started ---i lowered the rear shape- rounded out the rear body----lowered rear susp.---lowered rollbar----moved seat back ----changed the rear flares---changed the rear tail lights---lowered nose 3"--cut out head lights----rounded front flares to be softer looking ------made custom front windshield i am about 75% there but happy so far -----THANKS FOR ALL THE NICE COMMENTS---DENNIS

Engine --327 4spd--fire system --hurst shifter--coilover front springs ---solid rear leaf spring --fuel cell-- its getting there
|
Really cool.
I can't see anyone not liking it, because it could be anything. It doesn't look like a C2 or a C3. The original was cool and you improved on it. Can you supply some 360 degree photos? |
I will in the near future as you can see it is up against the wall in my friends shop --i am working on the exhaust and he was nice enough to let me use his lift . It's just the wheels came late today and i had to get them on----man at the age of 71 i still get so ramped up about this stuff----i have done so many cars in my life and each one was always my best work ---UNTIL THE NEXT DREAM CAME ALONG --HA-HA --THANKS DENNIS
|
I love it! |
Really nice work!!!!

Yup that's me with the man himself --malcolm bricklin---very nice guy --he was extremely pleasant and liked the car a lot --in fact he made a statement that if his car looked like this he might still be in business . I thought it was funny
|
Really great job on the overall design especially the rear wheel openings and the wheel/tire fitment. :cool:
