Anyone else read the eBay description, and the voice inside your head immediately picked up a backwoods Southern twang? And you started to hear banjos in the background?
As much as I wanted to hate this thing, this car truck vehicle is surprisingly cool. It pulls off the look of the 90's El Camino concept all while made out of parts that cost, well, uh, dirt. The beauty of it is that you could actually make one yourself for maybe a grand.
FWD FTL Too much chrome in the engine bay...FTL Goofy bat-wing molded into the bedsides...FTL A bit too early '90s with the paint scheme.
I think I have to be more conservative than Matt, and give it a 92% awesomeness rating. In spite of the listed faults, I love it. I would drive it. I wouldn't throw down $10k to drive it, but I'd drive it. I'd take it over a similarly garish VW Caddy, or a Rampage, anyway.
I'm oddly intrigued and impressed, and not just because it's the work of a fellow Alabamian. It's the fact that he took two cars, each of which is about a 5 out of 10...and created a single beast which is easily an 8 out of 10. Synergy ftw.
In honor of his pasting, I'd even rock a license plate saying "CTRL V"
The cynic in me thinks that all those trophies are not from car shows. He probably hust had a bunch from his kids various t-ball leagues, basketball camps, boy scout soap box derby, etc. and decided tho put them all in front of the car to take the picture. Just saying...

You know who else overdoes the vanity plates? Illinois.
