So much work....so much time......and no one thought to say "hey, this grill make it look like it's got buck teeth".

I really hoped when I saw this picture that they were going to cut the grill down.....no such luck.....

Well, it seems a bit safer in a crash at least.  Fantastic execution of a terrible idea.  Be careful not to touch it with more than a 1/2 pound of pressure.

Why... you think he wants his coat back?

I dont dig the grill but I kinda like the hood and tail shape.  It looks like a TVR mated with a Morgan.  Not a fan of the door panels.

it's like he got a deal on the grill from craigslist and built the car around it.

the car is a huge 5mph bumper....and it floats. [laugh]

I can appreciate the work involved, not to mention the attention to detail.

Beyond that....  :P

Perhaps that fine beaverskin coat was an inspiration as well.

Clearly the fellow had received a vision...

apparently not hindered by corrective lenses..

perhaps sent to him by the earthbound and damned souls of the designers who gave us the Edsel, the Studebaker and the Aztec

he was compelled to pursue his grail to fruition,

no matter at what cost....

Indeed it seems to be an automotive platypus comprised of feline, beaver and asiatic-stereotyping design notions
