Bernard Kron Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 Great looking design and beautiful modeling. The result is remiscent of the classic full custom models of the 60's but with the crispness that we can get today. Two thumbs up!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raul_Perez Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 I like the way the custom body work flows from front to back...nice job bringing the design cues together. How about a shot from the rear and of the chassis?! Thanks for sharing, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 A realy slick, intelligent design. The Atlantic lends itself well to a pickup (now why didn't I think of that?). Excellent finish and execution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Lombardo Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I am not sure how I missed this before...great idea. I always loved the Chrysler Atlantic show car. One of the best concept cars ever, in my opinion, so any variation on that platform works for me. Very well done...great execution, a one of a kind unique ride. Very nice!
