N2A Motors is building a unique car with the front of a 57 Chevy, the middle as a 58 and the back is a 59. Very cool.

Reminds me of this

Sorry :/

From the rear it's not that bad, I actually like it, but that front end.. uuh.. nope nope nope.

Again, Sorry. The grille needs to be bigger, the wheel arches needs to be smaller.

Reminds me of those classic car kits that they made for '90s Camaros and Thunderbirds, only (judging by that A-pillar) this is based on a Corvette so it's even more of a waste of a good car.

I sorta like it. In a strange way.

Ooh, I remember something like that on the 2011 Power Tour.... Just as ugly, but the engine compartment was a work of art.

From their website, "All of the money in the world spent to modify or modernize a vintage car will not change the reliability or performance problems associated with it. The 789 offers the best of both worlds: retro looks and styling, and it will fire up every time you turn the key."

I HATE that. Sure, modern engines are nice and give the sense of reliability (and an LS engine certainly is reliable), but that way of thinking aggravates me to no end. Perfect example? My '74 truck had to take over daily driver duties because the starter on my 2000 Expedition took a dump. So my 40 year old truck was the most reliable vehicle in my stable. Sure, it gets terrible mpg, but that's not the point they're trying to make. It starts up every time, drives fine, has no issues, and if anything breaks, it's simple/cheap to repair.
