I know that it's bad form, but....

Check out some of the cars in this link:

Other great restomods?

The Z on page 2

My brain just exploded from the amount of awesome in that thread

I love the Volvo Amazon. Tomorrow I ask for a raise from the boss so I can start on my car.

Lots of Nissan engines in those cars. And that killer white Corvair with the orange stripes and vette engine.

WOW!

That is a very awesome V8 VQ45 swap from an Infiniti Q45 and twin turbo'd. That IS one beautiful car.

Goddamn that is a sweet thread. I think the winner is that Volvo Amazon though.

The MGB GT wins the sleeper award though...RB26T in it and the damn thing looks stock on the outside!

I have to shamelessly plug my own project as my favorite restomod: my dad bought this car in 1962 and it's been part of the family ever since. It's currently in the middle of a 4.6 DOHC/T45 swap.

1957 Thunderbird

That thread makes my dingle tingle.

the opel manta sure looks good to me...

The Cosworth Model A was the first car that came to mind.

Oh goodness, I'm in love with Opel Mantas now.

Glad to see a couple GRMers made it into such company. Good stuff.

what the heck, hey thats my thread!!!!!!! (still trying to get the mods to fix my botched registration under tetzuoe lol... dont register the day of a grm challenge.)

The Manta does it the most for me, but the Amazon is a very close second.

I think Chuck Norris would approve of that thread.

Not only that it gives me some cool ideas for that 280z on the back of my property that's just sitting there doing nothing.

Volvo Amazon hands down.

Even my wife stopped in her tracks while walking by the computer to ogle that car porn. She said "I'd rock that!"

I really appreciate that kind of work. I like classic cars and all, but I really like resto mods if done well, too. That Karmann Ghia rocks.

Im kind of sad all the images broke over time, there were some nice ones of that amazon and i forget the rest... they were posted without explanation

I'm trying very hard not to get worked up about the triumph drag car.

The Opel is my favorite but that could be because I've seen the amazon wagon before.

Tetzuoe is jwc38, from the Volvo wagon swap advice thread:

Here's mine: A 66 Bonneville with a Caddy 500, TH400, GVOD, 14-bolt rear axles, and 3/4-ton front brakes. I tore it all down for body work and now I think I'm going to do a diesel; either a Duramax or a TDI V10 (if I can afford it)
