Still looks like a space shuttle to me, but the great thing about automobiles is the freedom of self expression. As long as he's happy, since it is his time and money.

I was just thinking about what that would look like just last week. Tried to visualize it and even sketch it out. Thought it looked pretty kool, until now, yuk. But like you said "as long as he's happy with it." It's nice to know that no matter what "we" do to our trucks, that 99o/o of our readers appreciate the work and talent that goes into the modifications that some people do to their trucks. It's awesome to think that someone can do that amount of work and still it operates the way they wanted it do. I personally don't like it, but congratulations on a job well done.

I think it would look less ugly with a radical top chop. To each his/hers own.

They could be like that for suspension travel, but the prefab tubs are big like that. It looks better to me before they hacked it up. They probably needed the extra length to run a clutch fan. :roll:

If that front end is from an old TransAm, would that make it a Trans(vestite)LUV? I know, get a sense of humor!!!

it's definitely "original". it's almost cool almost.. hmm anybody have a photoshop? take a luv and put different front ends on it. i think the entire purpose this guy was going for was better aerodynamics. he may be pushing some high trap speeds and needed the extra downforce. to each his own.
