There's something wrong here
« on: June 28, 2013 - 05:26:43 PM »
Saw this on Failbook and just had to share.

When I did a google image search for it I found a pic of my avatar which was slightly odd.
1972 Cuda 340 4 barrel 4 speed that looks like a 71
2006 Dodge Charger R/T Daytona
2005 Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel 4X4
2006 Chrysler PT Cruiser Convertible (Kidmobile)
1972 Dodge Charger 318 auto
1970 Challenger 440/727 auto
1973 Plymouth Duster 340/auto (Making it Panther Pink for the wife)
2006 Honda Civic Hybrid (It doesn't save gas, it just diverts it to the Cuda/Challenger)
In desperate need of more property for my growing Mopar family

 :dunno:  I dunno, looks pretty cool.  Would like to see the hood scoop with the hood closed.  :grinyes:

Dodges attempt at a subtle merge from making the Challenger to Cuda? Its cool and interesting, yet wrong all in one. Its a collaboration of young and old. Is that a new Challenger grille on that?

Cool look!

There's definitely something wrong with that scoop.
No front openings? It has a nose in the middle that comes forward to the center line?
Weird scoop.

I can't really pinpoint why,  but the first thing that come to my mind when I saw the pic was something in the Disney movie cars!  All it needs is one if those sunshades with eyes!

It's definitely different and not for the purist. I kinda like it except for the hood scoop. The black on black looks mean. I'm sure it someone a lot of time to put together. Neat looking hood latches!  :2thumbs: I too would like to see that hood scoop with the hood closed!

Well,  thought I found this car with the hood closed,  but I do believe its another one! Or same one with some changes made between photos taken?  Is this becoming an epidemic?

Looks like the same car but the ebay pics look like the silver shaker and side stripes look photoshopped to me...  :dunno:

I like the way the front bumper/ valence was done.
