The Snake Pit Retro HHR

The Snake Pit HHR concept was to send the HHR into a time machine, and transform it into a circa-1949 / 1950 Panel Van with classic moon rims, and custom retro paint using a vintage GM color paint scheme!

Modifications

Video Gear

The rear doors were fused to the chassis, all handles, rear passenger windows, rear quarter panel windows, reflectors, and rear glass were shaved.
