Custom panel on e-bay

Not really my thing, but clearly some heart and soul went into this one:

Somebody put a lot of time and effort into that, and also a bit too much chrome, you can over-chrome a custom ride....that's an example....makes my eyes hurt.

Agree on the chrome. Like I said, this one definitely isn't my thing, but yeah, a lot of work went into this one.

Not my cup of tea, but it looks way better than some of the HHRs right on this forum, that use stick on "chrome" accessories everywhere and anywhere they possibly can.

I'm not big on the chrome either, but I think they incorporated it almost perfectly with the their theme. The running boards are just a bit much, but that still stays with the theme, on where the chrome would go on a '57 Chevy which is what they were emulating

What is up with the 3 foot long shifter? That is pretty bad.

They used an Octane Booster, if the shifter doesn't get shorter in 4 hours, they need to contact a mechanic.

It's a "Rat Rod" thing....


I do like the dropping tailgate but not the way it looks, the angle is all wrong for what he was going for... I do like the 2 door panel conversion. (the sides) Wood floor looks cheesy, I've seen better. Kudos for the amount of work done, but it just missed on the styling ques.
