      The car doesnt look too bad. The wheels and tires dont fit.
      What I would be most concerned about is what is under that "newly painted Foose Inspired" body.... :/

      Tee hee! I was wondering what was up with the wheels too.

      I think the paintjob looks good, but the interior shots are kinda scary.

      I think they are trying to make a quick buck on that car. I just don't see the point of painting a car that needs so much work, so you know something is up

      i like the repeated rust free statements yet the trunk floor had to be replaced. i like the whole layout with the paint, but theres just something fishy about the car. he never stated why hes selling it either.

      Wasn't the one that Foose did a Challenger too? Poor guy has brand dyslexia.

      I don't really think that's the major complaint, at least not with me it's not. It's just the fact that the exterior has this "Fabeautumous" paintjob, but then the rest looks like a junkyard find. The wheels are there for effect, but they kinda sour it with the size. If the car had been gutted and primered on the inside and just sitting on a rotisserie I'd have no problems with it.

      Definitely the old "haircut and a shave" just to sell it.
