Russell C Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 A.k.a reversed greenhouse sections. I had fun building my 1/2 backwards VW Beetle since it ends up looking so comically bizarre. However, the treatment is not my original idea, I've seen it done over the years to some success (or not) in my various rummages though custom car images in the internet. This backwards Vette is one I found & copied years ago. The person did quite a bit of photo altering of a common photo image, but I completely forget the website or blog where the alteration appears. I've also bookmarked a few image links, such as one for a reversed Testarossa, which is sorta there, but still needs more lots alteration to make the image less goofy. This Sub5Zero site had a thread on reversed cars, including a New Beetle which I don't actually remember seeing, but it doesn't actually look all that good. All of the images there don't go to the effort of recoloring the signal lights, and many are lackluster overall, but I thought the reversed Maserati had especially good potential. Here's a different thread with some other images and some repeats from the above thread And I did one BMW M6 reverse image myself years back where I went to the extra effort to color the marker lights properly. Who knows what the "new" headlights would look like … So, feel free to add in other pics here, or your own ideas if you want to try 'em out. Can be made to work on convertibles with tastefully repositioned windshields, such as Claude Thibodeau's reversed Avanti. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89AKurt Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 The first generation of Audi TT would be a cinch to reverse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Handley Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 That Vette in the 1st pic almost looks like how the Corvette would have been if Duntov convinced Chevy to go mid engine in the late 50's! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
