Kit car ? ID please

[Jantrix]

Came across this on FB today. We're pretty stumped on what it is. I figure its a kit car, but what manufacturer and based on what? The windshield is too laid back for a 80's/90's Camaro/Firebird. The nose is very 80's Skyhawk-ish. Thoughts?

I'd say it's a one off. Too fugly to be mass produced or even copied a second time.

This site can probably find the answer...

The door and windows look similar to some of the Diablo kits from the 90's but not exactly . And the wheel openings look more truck like .

I worked in the kit car industry for 20 years and never saw anything like this !

It appears the entire front nose and hood are metal, so that might rule out most kit cars. Whatever it is, it sure is unpleasant on the eyes.

From the way you all are talking, I can't wait to get off this job and onto my other one so, I can see this thing. Most pictures don't show up on this "virtual network".

It has some interesting lines....not good lines.....just interesting.

I believe it's a Pondiabloreanghini. No one has ever tried to replicate one,so this may be the only one.

Ooh, I came back and it let me see it this time. Man, this is ugly. I would definitely say 88 Buick Skyhawk is the front end they were aiming for. I gotta admit though, shorten the front end, do away with the fat fender wheels in the front, and fix the front of the door and the door window and it wouldn't look half bad. And if I could see those seats better, I would swear it is a Fiero.

I think its the Pink Pantherfiero, repainted of course.

Looks like a Bricklin, a Capri and one Anteater had an affair!!

I hate to say it, but, I kinda like it

[Ace-Garageguy]

Poor little car. It's so sad and horrible, I'd kinda like to take it home and give it some TLC. Sorta like an abused, one-eyed, 3-legged puppy with worms. There just MIGHT be a really good dog under there.

Someone put a lot of effort into this. But to me it's look that not even a mother could love.

You might check this site too. http://www.forgottenfiberglass.com/ They cover old kit cars...

Due to the sheetmetal front clip, I am going out on a limb to say this wasn't a kit car. Most likely a one off.

[Daddyfink]

American Racing Daisy Mags give it some street cred

[Fabrux]

I don't know, but that front clip looks fibreglass to me. The body shell actually appears to be one piece; I can't see a parting line where a seperate fender should.

Is it sad that I rather like the design of it? At least it's not the plain beige of most modern cars. I'd like to see the rest of it.

Looks like someone uglyied up a Bricklin something bad.

You know, you could very well be right. That could just be very whethered where it looks rusted.

EDIT

By heck, you are right! I just noticed the hole in the fender lip.

based on a Fiero

[heinz74]

looks like something from Discovery's Chop Shop...

[pharoah]

I don't know. This car (Zimmer Quicksilver) is built from a Fiero,and look at that snout.

One word. Hideous! I wish I hadn't picked up my new glasses!
