I came across this while going through old emails. I'm not crazy about old american cars, but I love this car! It's simply stunning.

Unbelievable! The company is planning a production run of about 100 vehicles. Sits on a Corvette C6 chassis, front styled like a 57 Chevy, side like a 58, rear like a 59. Hence the designation "789".

The front wheel arch needs a re-design,it is too high and too square so it makes the front wheel look too big for the body.But other then that it looks very good

I like it! Looks like a real-life Hot Wheels model. The rear is sooooooo Impala! :drunks:

Uhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.......

I tend to agree with Chris. The wheel arch just need to be 'trimmed' ever so slightly to 'tuck' the wheel a bit. Then there is that 'something' about it :zhelp: I am not dissing this car at all. But it is one of those things that you sy "Nah, it doesnt cut it", but when you come back to he pic after a week or so, you are like "You know what? This car is actually fairly kickass!" I just wonder what it would look like in a different colour scheme? (comes to mind :mrgreen: )

I take it as a compliment :hangloose:

Not sure if the previous post 'translated' right :wink: Meant to say that I like the car! It just didnt strike me the first time, you know? Some cars you see you go like :surprised: :hangloose: , and then there are some where you go :? :?: , you do a double take, and only then you are like ImageImageImage

I like it... water cooled, so OK, it's not perfect, but I like it. It's nice and gets nicer the more you look at it.
