No lack of torque after you ditch the V-Tec

Revell or Fujimi Civic for the hatchback portion?

Revell

Funky weird! I like!

Speaking of funky weird...anyone else see vestiges of the original BMW M Coupe in this? That's the first thing that came to my mind when I saw this.

Beautiful job on the model, but the overall design isn't really my cup of tea...

It's a little too stubby for my tastes...... Kinda looks like a mid 70's honda civic or an early 80's chevy chevette with a mustang front and rear clip...

That's because it is a Honda Civic with a Mustang front & rear clip

A late '90's Civic hatch, by Revell (read the replies above).

I see where you asked the question of the revell civic kit being used, but I didn't see any typed responses by builder indicating that............ but yes, it's a civic with stang clips added...

His reply is somewhat hidden as he typed it inside his 'quote' reply to me. I had to look twice to see it myself.

[BigBeze]

That is just pure creativity! Its what a civic dreams of at night

Very cool mi pana!!! I love it!!!

yes, you are correct. The reply is a bit hidden...Didn't see it at all till you pointed it out..

If it was a snake I would of gotten bit!!

[Jeff Sauber]

That Chevette may be the coolest one I've ever seen ... now THAT would make an interesting modeling project!

Yeah, the pro-gas chevette is pretty cool. There was a guy who used to race one at my local track with twin holly 850's and a 671 blower sticking out of the hood.

It was fast and was real squirrely going down the track. Scary to watch, and likely even scarier to drive....It think it ran like 8.80's-9.00's in the quarter.

looks like a renault 5 turbo to me

im not sure what to think of it

i mean, it is ugly (in my opinion) but as far as skill, vision and innovation it is by far one of the best pieces i have ever seen

and that is what matters

also, the paint looks awesome

[ScrappyJ]

Really cool concept. Nice job!

[made007]

thanks for the comments

[Harold]

Nice concept and execution. A+ work

[diymirage]

I agree it looks like a RWD rally hatch from the late '70s with 2000s Mustang front sheetmetal, just not quite the same one you did.

I was going to (jokingly) comment that he stopped halfway through by not putting the V8 in sideways like a Renault 5 Turbo. To me it looks like another rally car the way he did it...the Lotus Sunbeam or Droop-snoot Vauxhall

that looks like a corsa on steroids

i luvs it

i actually have 3 or 4 opels (or as you call em, vauxhauls) on my list of cars ill own when i have money to burn including the C cadett

ascona with the inline 6

and a manta with the dual round headlights

oh, and a V6 calibra for good measure
