Please tell me this is a ‘shop. For the love of all that is holy, please.

And yet, the weird part of me had to find something to like about it... It’s the muffler-bumper. Mufflumper? Bumffler? Anyways, 1 part, 2 purposes. That’s some Gordon Murray level shit right there. Alt hough I’m curious about that cross pipe/bar/thing - does it actually cross connect the mufflers? How does that affect the sound? As an acoustics engineer these are the things I think about.

The rest of the car, though, is beyond redemption.

I’m just hoping this was salvaged after a wreck. The front looks like the outline curves of the mustang with sealed blah headlights. If the front was more curved it could be the modern Cheetah.

Aesthetically, it ain’t my flavor . But I’m a function over form kind of guy; I’d like to know  how much weight was saved here ...

Me: Do you think this was properly vetted by the GM Ethics Committee?

GM: The what?

GM and Ethics are mutually exclusive

The Ethics Committee was dissolved by Roger Smith in a 1982 efficiency move.

It’s a minimalist Vette.

I like it.

It’s like a chocolate rabbit at Easter. Somebody nibbled  off its nose and ass.

Oh no, I just noticed the bumper ettes over the mufflers.  So likely not a dual purpose setup :( .  Looks like they grafted a Camaro nose on it, at least partially.

I know the McLaren F1 used it’s mufflers as the 5 mph impact absorber. They aren’t visible, there’s a CF fascia on the back of the car, but the mufflers are directly behind it.

The mufflers on the thing above remind me of the TVR Sagaris. I t also has a rear fascia and I’m not sure if the mufflers act as crash absorbers or if it has a separate crash structure.

Yeah, I see those now. There’s so much WTF going on I missed them the first time. Shame, it’s a missed opportunity.

It’s funny how some hours of labor can produce beautiful custom  vehicles, and those same hours can produce this.  

HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles > pip bip - choose Corrour 04/07/2020 at 10:18

As a lover of short overhangs, I kinda dig it.

But you know what? Look at this thing from a workmanship point of view. Somebody did a hell of a job with what they had. Picturing this thing was wacked o n both ends and a cheap Copart buy. Bet its a good autocross car!

I don't hate the front end.

Not sure how one gets to the point of deciding that's a good idea.

Rear could use some work
