    Why are people so hard on this car... I think the car is funny. If the guy wants to waste his time and money on it, why should we care? It's not my time and money... He obviously built it to grab peoples attention, and it certainly does that!

    To each his own, I guess. I don't care much for Donk's or Dub's either, but these guys put alot into their rigs to stand out in a croud. This guy achieves that I'm sure. Would I own it ?? NOOOOOOT !! Is it stooopid to me, SURE. But, that said, it's his not mine. I could come up with any of a number of projects that I consider more worthy of that kind of investment, Ford, Chevy or Dodge. But I'm an old guy into American Iron. Live and let Live. :)

    to me that car would be the equilivent of taking a rust bucket pinto that barly runs, packing it full of bondo and getting a $20,000 paint job

    probably not an exact comparison but i'd say thats definatly the sme mind set

    If it wasn't for the stupid paint and stickers... and it was an actual RWD v8 car I think Id like it...
    w/o all the crap on the car, it would look like a lifesize hotwheels car or something
