Ok, lemme say two things:
This makes ANY car you've ever owned look good;
His daughter took it to prom. Seriously.

Tech Specs:
* Chevy Lumina APC making love to ANOTHER Chevy Lumina APC;
* Nothing has been removed from either vehicle except what was necessary to weld them together; the exhaust system is still present on both vehicles;
* That red line under it in the first picture is the 2" square steel tubing welded onto the sub frame as an ad hoc frame rail.





That tan box on the near the middle? That's where the window-mount AC for a house sits.



The taillights of the front Lumina are fully functional; that stuff you see is the spray-in hardening foam covered with masking tape (it didn't stop the leaks).




Dude... I would SO take this to a prom!!!

yeah. that's one of his OTHER frame rails that runs from end to end, but more centrally located. Thought it was a bumper mounted exhaust at first, until i actually got down and looked at it.
