| I think it looks great, I would put the emblems back on though and I hate those stupid low rider steering wheels. Car is awesome otherwise. |

Location: Perth Australia | If it was a 4drht, it would be what the plans are for my car
I wont be changing the interior like that and it will be a poly, but the look is what I am after
I would love to see what they did for the top of the fins.

Location: Alaska | I would be curious to see how they strengthened the unibody in the rear for the 4 link suspension. |

I know the gentleman who built this car and talked with him at BJ. He wasn't too happy with what it brought at BJ. I will be visiting him in April and could find out if you would like. |

Location: Alaska | I am not interested in copying that 4 link, just thinking a heavy car with unibody, it would have to be done right to be strong enough. |

Location: Muskego, WI | I think it's nice externally and I like the drivetrain. The interior, though, is not for me. Prices on 50s cars are dropping, not surprised this car didn't bring much at BJ. |

This ..... thing is no longer a "50s" car. Somebody tried his best to make it look like a new crap car and he succeeded. Gone is the mid century/jet age charm. FL is not just about fins. |

| This platform on almost any other 2 door in the forward look era would have fetched at least 20% more at BJ. Wrong car for this modification. From what I understand, really well done. I almost bid on it lol |
