I have to admit, it's a stunner. I like the use of the "erector set" style rear axle setup and the use of the structual twine...

I think instead of buying the car, I'd like to spend my money on what ever drugs they were on when they thought of this project. Maybe it went like....

....dude, past it over so I can take a hit...
....dude you know what, we should like, get your mom's car, and like make it into this really cool rice car, and make it rear wheel drive so we'll be differn't than those other front drive cars...
....oh and dude, maybe jack up the rear end so it looks like we're flying a plane and coming in for a landing all the time...
...DUDE!

You know the sad part is, I saw an old POS chevy the other day with this very setup, had to be a good 12" higher in the butt of the car. How the hell do keep from sliding out of the seats?

oh, and Ryan, yeah, you should have waited...

That looks like a cross between Oscar White's '94 Probe GT (it was the same then-trendy teal green color), and Ed Mann's '88 Mustang GT (or about any Fox-body car) under hard braking.
