I spotted this wonderful piece of automotive art yesterday. It's a Chrysler LeBaron convertible, with a raised suspension, raked tires, a fake cowl hood, a skull with glowing eyes glued to the grille, hood pins, several 300M badges, and 16 fake portholes.
The owner of this LeBaron is clearly a fan of the Death Race movies, and has decided to name himself (or perhaps his car?) El Jefe.
Oh, and the inside of the fake cowl hood says ORANGE for some reason. I guess he likes oranges? Maybe he saw the inside of some other cowl hood that was orange, but rather than paint his orange, he settled on just labeling it orange. And...there's a goblin of some kind on the cowl hood.
This car is a true master class in automotive design.

Love that you counted the fake portholes. That's a lot of adhesive backing he had to peel and stick. That's just terrible.

At least it doesn't look all the other LeBaron convertibles you see on the road all the time!

That is glorious.
The lift fucking cracked me up.

Well, I only counted the fake portholes on one side. I'm assuming that given his level of detail in applying fake portholes, that he has the same number on both sides of the car. But that could certainly turn out to not be the case.

Lifted and raked!

Journalistically, I think it's your duty to find out.

Unfortunately that's not possible, since I spotted the car while visiting family in Chicago, and I'm now back up in Madison.

Still more tasteful than a donk.

Who in the world would want to put a 300M badge on any car?

El Jefe probably manages the Office Depot. Keep that in mind, kids, next time you think retail will get you nowhere.
That thing is abysmal. Also comical. Like wearing clown shoes with a Sears suit and demanding to be taken seriously by shouting at everyone who looks at you.

The point of Death Race is not for a driver to commit suicide out of shame.

Do I detect a sense of humor by how he/she chose to adorn this car?

Better yet - who in their right mind would own a 300M?

I sure hope so.

Maybe he wanted to badge it as something more premium but still in the Chrysler family?
