Alero/IH/Grand Am thing on Craigslist... fact or faked?

As fugly as it is, it's still an improvement on Pontiac's design.

Hey now, I like the 99-04 Pontiac Grand Am better than the 3 previous designs. So much so that I've got 2 of them.

Grand International? InterAm? Whatever it is, I think someone was exposed to too much laquer thinner. The profile shot of the left side- it looks like the front wheel and tire is bigger than the back.

[Draggon]

Um, is it in Knoxville Tennesee, or Knoxville Iowa? The back 'O my neck is pretty red, but it not THAT red. And hey, I loved my El Camino with the gun rack and 50 series Mickey Thompsons!

..Sorry James. To each his own. l love some of the ugliest autos to ever come out of Detroit & darn proud of it, too!

[trogdor]

And I thought I'd seen the ugliest car around here. A 4 wheel drive Lincoln mark 5, with a corvette stinger hood epoxied in place.

[Wayne Buck]

OMG...

I think the only "joke" is the price he's asking...

I'm with everyone else who posted- That thing is UG-LEE!!!! Looks like a grand am hit the back of an international cab at 100mph.

Dr. Cranky loves all things rat and rusty, so I was wondering. Could this be his next project? http://autos.yahoo.c...-152856762.html

Or is it still too shiny?

This project would be off the beaten path... waaaaaay off.

[JunkPile]

I just have a feeling somebody is gonna build this thing!

[Dr. Cranky]

wow, but i think it is not rusty enough. LOL!

[Jon Cole]

Not a rat rod, that's an abomination!

[MachinistMark]

What a waste.

[Chuck Most]

1. That isn't a rat rod- more like a Deep South interpretation of a Jeepney.

2. The only cool part of it is the IH R-Series cab, and what's left of the hood.

3. We've wandered this path before. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=60071

One or the other, but not together. This is what happens when we have to much time on our hands and cheap beer. Man should get a hobby, like modeling, much cheaper

[Terror]

Put that one behind the barn or better yet under the barn..Thats a lot of chewing gum to hold that together..

[MachinistMark]

Put who built it under the barn!

[JunkPile]

One of these days there is going to be a post in "Under Glass" with a scale build of this thang. Will you be the one to post it? Can a post be made anonymously? Is anybody at their bench right now feverishly working on it to be the first?

That's obscene

[signguy2108]

That's just sick, why would you ruin a good truck!

[Fat Brian]

This is what should happen to that thing

Feverishly is right ! You'd have to be sick.

I NOMINATE THE MICHIGAN MADMAN TO BUILD IT OR SOMETHING SIMILAR. CHUCK MOST YOU SHOULD BE THE FIRST TO TAKE A CRACK AT IT!!!!!!!!!!

[JunkPile]

I don't know why I think I know this.....but.....I think The Michigan Madman may already be deep into this build.....Maybe not.....but.....

A few years ago there was a hideous car for sale down here , can't remember the details of it (was an asian car with a huge and overly done bodykit but standard asthmatic engine) and can't find it now but a group of guy's on a performance car forum banded together and bought it do destroy it in the most spectacular way they could ... Maybe someone needs to do that here
