Too many shadows and reflections to be a chop. Not to mention the dorks with cameras in the second pic.

I don't think it's a chop but it looks like a super super modified rd.

roof, windows, interior, upper parts of the door, rear quater panels. all rd

Oh No... I'm getting ideas guys.... I think I'll be hunting for a cheap RD1 next year and play around with some EXTREME mods to create some kind of monster like this. Sounds like fun actually. Take elements from all the cars I like and create one bad a$$ custom sports car..... I almost like that idea better than getting a GK with a Mussa Widebody. I'll have my own monster garage, and since my cousin has a body shop... The gears are grinding now.... saevil.gif

i would have NO IDEA WHAT THIS WAS if it weren't for the rear quarter windows. otherwise, its a mystery to me...

i think it is very creative, shows a ton of work and talent. whether it looks "good" or not, it is very good work

that is no chop. no way...

they basically kept the back hatch frame the same just cut out the window and a little of the metal and fiberglassed it inward to create the flat effect. anybody could probably fit that hatch on their tiburon with the rear seats taken out with the exception of the light alighment. very very clever!!

whoever did that, is very mechanically correct and could probably be making a ton of money off of projects like that. it looks american. i see chopper shirts. nice find by the way.

Ugly as hell, but some great work. Those fender flares are looking pretty good.
