Or is it possible potential potential? O.k., so this is a bit of a long shot but that's why this is called a "challenge". I've already got my concept in my head, and it's not a Nascar thing...

If you don't wanna mess with the S3 just post sumpin else cool.

406 (Ben),

I have always loved these cars. I had a '73 Laguna and a '75 Malibu Classic. Here's a couple variations I came up with last year...

A '73 Laguna Estate wagon converted into a two door wagon...or an El Camino converted into a wagon.



A '75 Malibu with the '73 Laguna nose.






I sold this car back in 1988. My cousin said "I saw you racing all over town in your Chevelle." I said, "It wasn't me, I sold it to some bonehead."





These cars were beasts and had a great top end! Especially, without smog equipment, adding dual exhaust and headers.

Only Mopar and Ford fans would dislike these cars.

I just think that cars like this are ... well "proof" of anything isn't exactly what I'm trying to say ... but basically with good craftsmanship and the right vision, any car on the planet can look "good". Thanks to a V8, NASCAR and the size, it still overlaps with the hobby but it's certainly a challenge. All opinions aside, I think I'm gonna give it a shot.

Wahooo! Lookin forward to it!

As I said above, I like the older laguna nose like on the wagon, nice stuff by the way, but that 75-77 nose is butt ugly, er, for the PHR guys, a bit cosmetically challenged. Thats where the fun (and challenge) is, make the ugly duckling look like the swan it wants to be...

Post up Friday coming up soon! I've got one view of my S-3 done, hoping to find time to do a second view. I think with my changes it looks better than stock but still a bit "challenged" . Anybody else working on this one?

I'm tryin, but runnin out of time. Between my computer crashin, power outage (who knew we'd get hit by hurricane Ike up here in Ohio?!) and a round of colds going through our house, I have most of one view done, but really want to do the rear. We'll see what I can get.
