Call me crazy, but I really like it. Not $50K like it, but I like it. I would have to replace that front spoiler and the rear spoiler, but besides that, I think it has a lot of really nice craftsmanship.

I agree, withouth the front and rear add on spoiler it would be badass

I will third the fact that the front and rear spoilers would have to go, maybe if it was a little more subtle. It is definitely a sick car and I love the front end on those mid 70s birds. Looks like a pretty good attention to detail. If you like that one, you should check out Jesse James' TA http://www.westcoastchoppers.com/whips/
I think you will have to select 1980 Coors Bandit from the dropdown. That car blows me away.

I didn't say it was bad.....
It reminded me of the coors/jessie james ride just a different year.

It does have a CB, looks like it is mounted on the hoop of the roll bar.

Im thinking that the spoiler dragging on the ground is less than 100% ideal.
Pretty cool though. I prefer the red one that belongs to some european dude that is a member here.True T.

Looks like a cool build that went a little over the top.

ugly and not that custom or specially built. hes just thrown stuff onto the car. look at how he has mounted the different electronic devices in the interior. the engine bay looks like crap as well. parts just stuck on where there was room. no way is that worth $50k. sorry, he could have done so much more if you trully wanted a cannon ball car.
his ad also is very poorly written. he lists all these custom parts, yet does not show them. there may be a lot more to this car, but he's not showing it or explaining it well.
the red one your refering to is over in Holland i believe. that car is very functional and badass.
ok i know this is an all out race car, but here is what i consider a trully badass car. i love the look of this thign from the front. http://www.butlerperformance.com/carOfMonth.htmTrey

I like the car ok I guess. I'd lose the spoilers too, and I would get rid of the wheels. They are a little too blingy for me. Also from the side shots you can't see any kind of frame connector, and he makes no mention of any. With the targa roof I would have to have them and a better cage too.
