From some Malaysian car show. I have no words to describe this, other than "the horror... the horror..."





A welded-link chain strut brace?


Check out the shifter.


Disco lights.



Apparently it used to be a Datsun Sunny, but now...

I remember hearing a story about a supercharged VY SS ute. It was a backyard job if memory serves, and they only way they could keep it cool was to mold a BA bulge into the bonnet and cut a hole in the back of it.

Doesn't look too bad

Still a fail for ford envy though

Plates are an additional fail

Not sure why it's been fitted without paint. Test fit maybe?

I've been going back through the last month of this thread to try and find a GIF image of some guy doing a donut in a factory. Wasn't on a forklift but a small tug type thing and he ends up being flung off.. Any help as to where it is?

The below image didn't get any love. It's awesome. I would have ****ed myself if I'd seen them actually try and wipe the windows using a back & forth motion with the rope.
