IMO this silver new 440 Interceptor chop needs help. It's supposed to be a modern day version of the very rare Chrysler 440 powered Jensen Interceptor people are trying to resurrect. Ugly as a coupe now and in its day, you can't really see it in this image that well but it is a fastback. Better looking as a 'vert. I'd like to see someone whack the roof or fix the shape of the roof and put decent wheels/tires on it, Pro-touring style if that works on it. I think the fender flares should be toned down a little bit in front and the rear rocker flares out too much IMO. The black '74 looks are deceiving. It has had EFI added and its 440 was breathed on. Now does the 0-60 in 4.5 sec. Stock they weighed over 4000 lbs. The maroon one is a '75. Original production ended after 1976. I like the nose treatment on the chop. Very British/Italian; as the original design was a mix of. If someone wants to fix it or bring their own interpretation to the silver chop, have at it!

From the inside you can see they were a hot rod Rolls Royce
