A Sebring. A hideous throwback to the days when kit cars were VW-powered with abysmal interiors and ergos engineered by blind orangutans. Don’t forget the ugliest arse end ever to roll down the road under its own power. Listed @ $7800 - it’s true NPOCP material..

Pic 2: Those taillights=NOPE

Pic 3: Burn it

Cars like this is the reason everyone backs away when I bring up kit cars

Sort of Bricklin-ish at the front end. A gallon of gas and a Bic lighter will solve the problem. CP in the extreme.

The modern head unit really ruins it for me. It detracts too much from the stock authenticity.

I dig the nine rocket launcher buttons though (shame the tenth fell off).

I like it a lot actually, but $7800 feels a bit steep given all that Beetleness underneath. Think you’d pretty much have to budget for a Subaru swap.

I feel bad for the people who maintained these things so well. Not worth a penny more than the sun bleached, cracked up ones sitting behind someone's garage for 30 years. In my humble opinion at least.

I don’t like this, but a lot of Sterling’s look cool.

I think those are fuses.

But you’d have the same swing axle unless you spent the dough on a custom rear susp. This would be a can of worms and prob not worth the time, money or effort considering all the upgrades required if you had a motor making decent power.

Yeah, definitely would be a never ending series of upgrades trying to get to somewhere reasonable.

Ugh. Again with the damn O’reilly-auto-parts-special Grant steering wheel. I hate that stupid thing.

LoL. There are many elements of this car to hate on. The wheel was the least offensive, imho
