I’m not 100%, but I think this car may have started out as an LTD or Galaxy. Regardless of what it started out as, there is a TON of work in this thing and some of it is done really well. The design sense though isn’t my speed. Note the well hidden, thanks to graphics, split at the back of the front fender for the tilt front end. If the front end is all steel, the person who fabricated the front end has got some skill for sure. “Where the hell did you find this thing anyway Chad?”, you ask. Well, our intrepid web dudes Scott and Michael were driving through Indiana to Illinois yesterday and just had to stop and take photos when they saw it. We aren’t sure how big Kentland Indiana is, but we know it’s got at least one “hot rod”.
I just can’t wrap my head around this one. There are things on it I totally respect, with regards to sheetmetal fab, etc. And then there are some that just scream “WRONG!!!” to me as well.
What do you think? And What they hell do you think it started out as?
It’s pretty much ALL wrong…..
65 big ford?
I’m thinking it was a mid ’60’s Ford Thunderbird with the roof line.
Ford Fairmont meets S10 Blazer, OUCH.
International Harvester meets Godzilla…
meth head takes auto shop
It looks like the car started as a 4-door. Mad metal fab skills, REALLY poor design layout.
Some sort of Galaxie bits dropped on an early Bronco?
I’m thinking the local stock car – ( roundie poundie ) track ! ?
It would be fun to put some dents in it 🙂 The fans choice to get pushed in to the wall 🙂
The fab is good BUT it’s as ugly as my dogs ass with the sh#ts 🙂
as to the question what did it start as ?
My guess S10 ( full frame , short , and bolt any thing on it )
It started life as a S10 or that little ford thingy 🙂 they called a sorta a truck 🙂
probably the Ranger ( ford thingy 🙂 )
The ford oval on the front grill , ford tail lights . ?
Looks like possibly a ’65 Ford Galaxie 4 door with scads of modifications. Whatever it is, somebody kill it before it reproduces!!
One picture of the interior would have solved the puzzle! 60’s ford i’m guessing.
Looks like an extra from the movie “Cars”. Just because you can do it doesn’t mean you should do it.
This is the perfect Bang Shift mobile, Chad. It will attract tons of attention, though it may not the good kind of attention. But, who cares as long as people look at it and the BS decals all over it. Best of all, it will never, ever get stolen. Bahahahahaha!!!
if i had to guess,i’d say a 66-67 fairlane—shortened,of course—crown vic? taillights—and is that a pinto back glass?–lotta work in that thing,and whoever did it has skill,just no styling sense—but hey,if it makes him happy,what the hell!!
Clark Griswold’s 65 Galaxie 4 door customized coupe
Not my style….but give him credit for at least finishing it!!!
Galaxie mated with a Fiero?
Its a…No its a……. No its a……. Aw forget it.
give it to the volvo guy for “testing”
Is it the “One piece at a time” car from that Johnny Cash song? Whatever it is I’d park next to it any day…. make my Matador look normal
1965 Galaxie….
Thats a big a……… door! that happens when you drink the wrong kind rum!!
Yea it’s better then the vega but only by a toenail in a foot race. Do have to give’m points for sheer determination to finish something that should have died on the drawing board. Too each their own I guess
Looks like the grinch’s butthole
The 90’s Olds Delta 88 taillights are my favorite.
I actually think this ones saveable. Bear with me…lose the hood scoop, grill and front spoiler, replace with a more stock looking from whatever the hell it is grille. get rid of the white lettering on the tyres, repaint the whole thing satin black…bit more detail work and it could look good..
It’s definitely hideous, but compared to that stupid Vega, at least it appears to be built with some sort of craftsmanship.
I thought dart with the quarter panels and wheelbase, but the roof, front clip and *ss end are all from somewhere I’ve never been …
It can’t stop making me laugh, it makes me want it! I only hope it makes lots of hideous noises.
That is a ford falcon convertible with a lot of fiberglass. All 4 corners are swapped, top, and doors are home brew. Looks like a high school body project.
Looks like somebody like NASCAR.
