Wow! Its hideous and cool all in the same scream. Some wider wheels and I'd be shouting late model modified for the street.

The rest of the dudes site isn't bad either. http://ekhatch.wordpress.com/2009/08/

That nazi helmet for an air breather/cover is interesting.

Certainly not what I expected. Points for originality.

Fairly impressive hack on the nose of the car. Looks to be narrowed quite well.

I hate it and love it all the same time.

Excellent work.

I find it entertaining. But I'd want it with a 4cyl up front and some rwd adaptation. The v8 heart with that body just doesn't make sense to me.

That's cool! Of course I like front V8 engine, big tires, stretched wheelbase, partially hooded, RWD dubs.

That's got a pretty serious Rat Fink attitude to it!

Actually, there are at least two Crosley hot-rods like this that were done in the '50s-'60s, and many more since then.

I'm digging the fact he used a small block Mopar in there. Looks like it's wearing an Edelbrock Performer intake too.

It's certainly not what I was expecting. I really dig the front end but the back just doesn't work with the stock fenders inside the wheels. It needs to have the rear quarters cut out or something.

Also, from the same site. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbSQTwZo2lQ&feature=player_embedded#!

I like it, but I could definitely see using box flares to create something similar to 1930s fenders....the problem is that I don't see how to tie the theme in for the front of the car.

The first to try takes the jeers, spears, and cheers.

I like it a lot. There is less and less that hasn't been done, so cool stuff like this needs to get the credit it deserves.
