Reminiscent of what spotty kids did to Vauxhall Astras in the 1990s, just needs some coloured lights underneath.

Lister TR6 without the mechanical upgrades?

Comfy looking seats though.

I was going to say it might help if the wings and doors were the same colour, but it wouldn’t! Vomitus Maximus🤮 

[TR NIALL]

Horrendous and that’s being kind.

Taking Italian style to a new level...

[Tom Fremont]

It does sport vintage Italian Webers...

This has been up for sale for years, guess that's not a surprise to anyone here! You really have to ask WHY?  Its hideous.

Horrible !

It took me a while to spot what all the fuss is about, but I got there in the end. What was he thinking with that ugly glove box catch???

🙃

[JohnC]

It has echoes of the Cologne Capri. Not saying that’s good or bad. Just does. And the proportions are so…wrong. Why did nobody say “stop”? Poor guy. Probably poured his heart and soul into the project and ended up with something nobody dared to say is just awful.

Engineering's a bit weird. Went to a lot of trouble with the carbs to pick up the hottest air from just under the bonnet lid.

It is a period modification, only scary from our todays view.

What will future generations think about what is style and desirable today?

[Steve Morris]

Oh dear, that’s upsetting.

Now I know its very much each to their own but I tend to appreciate pretty std spec cars. After all that’s generally why we like classic cars, because of what they were when they were current.

So I really don’t like the arches and side skirts but I do like them on an mk1 BMW M3.

But for me the seats are nearly as bad as the arches as they look out of place. I even don’t really like my Mk2 MX5 seats, separate head restraints. When I finish my std seats I’ll see how un-comfy they are and decide if to swap them back out.

Having said that I’d love to build a Rover 75/MG Zt coupe or MG TF FHC as per the Rover concept cars or build a Triumph 2500S estate with a Stag V8 engine. Now I know they’ve already been done but it would be a nice collection even though they were not production cars.

I’ve never seen Weber inlet trumpets like that before. A sort of downdraught sidedraught. 😜

The anchorage for the carburettor throttle return spring on top of the rocker cover looks like 2 strips of metal straight out of the Meccano box.

They look like Victorian ear trumpets for the hardof hearing.

Hmmmm, what a massive amount of work went into that car and to a decent standard as far can be seen from the photos but it's a bit like it was an exercise or a challenge. You must do the work well but change as many things as you can, guy with the most changes wins! Wow did he go for it.

[Stagpowered]

If it was done in the late 70s/ early 80s it was probably right on trend for the time, but it's a style that hasn't aged well
