Foxer Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 You sure make a point here!Though, that red one could spark some heated conversation among the hot rod guys as whether it constitutes a 'real' hot rod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Is that last one supposed to look like a Cobra ? Looks like someone beat it with an ugly stick but if the builder likes it, so be it. Silly but I kind of like the red one ( second to last ). Is that a midget ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Are they all based on MG's ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted April 16, 2016 Author Share Posted April 16, 2016 (edited) Are they all based on MG's ? Yeah, all MG Midgets or AH Sprites, 'cept for the black MG B Came across these trying to find a shot of an old employer's big-block Chebby powered Spridget. Here's some more beauties. This one's a TR. Another ungainly B. Crash bumper IMSA Midget... Another embarrassed TR... TR 7 with extra chin... And a melting MGB GT Edited April 16, 2016 by Ace-Garageguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perspective Customs Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 This thread should have come with a warning. And to think some guys spent their time, money and energy to build these. To each his own I guess but some of those are just down right hideous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spex84 Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 I kind of like the blown red one with the crazy rake and chrome side pipes. It's like the owner told himself "I'm going to build this for my 12-year-old self". Kudos. Why not!The rest though...paved with good intentions, etc, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spex84 Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 That woody is something that probably looked amazing as a concept sketch, but the execution just didn't quite succeed 100%. It's almost there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted May 14, 2016 Author Share Posted May 14, 2016 Here's another ill-conceived mess. A Ferrari "pontoon-fender" Testarossa wadded up and squeezed over a pool little innocent Miata. Yuck. See kiddies, the REAL design works... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
