Its a 9/10, loses a point because I like when those 'twist' wheels point forwards instead laugh

The green, tan leather and a bit of chrome combo is so good on cars of that pre-90s era though.

At least the wheels aren’t asymmetrical so all you need to do is swap sides and you can have them pointing in the other direction thumbup

Is there some sort of significance to the socket wrench left in the back?

Good old 2JZ, be interested to find out what manifold/turbo that is

Alternative version!


Back in the 1950s, Chevrolet built a few wagon concepts around a Corvette chassis and powertrain. Those concepts were all destroyed, but this recreation shows what might have been.

I’d never be seen in that...because I’d never be able to make my mind up about which way the wheels should point!! Perhaps buy a spare set and install them in different directions on each side...
Lovely looking

Probably adjusting the handbrake looking at the angle it is up at.

I prefer what Chevrolet eventually made, the '55 to '57 Nomad.

I saw this at a show at the weekend. A 1966 Mercedes 250 SE with a 4.0 turbo charged straight six Ford Barra engine. I’m going to guess (given the red cover) that this is a 245T which if it is stock would put out 329 hp and 480 Nm. That is slightly more than the 110 hp and 216 Nm the car left the factory with!

This is actually a late model Challenger Hellcat, modified to look like a 69 Charger. The wheels don't do it any favors, but otherwise it looks pretty badass.

That looks ridiculous! Like a tug boat of the automotive world.

I'm sure it's a blast just not for me.
