Nice Pep Boys special,
I like the smart ass comments in the article.
I saw someone do something similar to a '65(around that year) mustang out in AZ. He should have been shot! |

LOL again. It seems that the gold and mirrors would be better placed in a circa 1970s Cocaine based disco club or something. |

My favorite is all the pedals with the lightening holes in them to save that extra 2 ounces of weight so he can add 1 more electronic device! hahaaa....

"ONE MAN'S JUNK IS ANOTHER MAN'S GOLD." I really don't know if that even applies here. This is obviously a guy who had a bad nightmare, woke up and said, "I'm going to build one." YUK! |

I never thought I'd see all Past & present ferrari models melded into one, now I have - and it ain't pretty! |

The "cockpit" looks like an electronics store liquidation. |

LOL, those guys on the NSX site have some classy comments, flux capicators, etc. You gotta wonder what someone was thinking when they 1) put a lot of money into a car worth nothing 2) put together a car that would be more apt in Ghostbusters than the wild streets of the eastern block. This is like Martin said a good example of hard work misguided. I particularly like the playboy bunny near the steering wheel, I'm sure this car gets the kid a lot of a$$...right.
What would have been cool would be to take the original skoda and strip it down into more of a track car style rather than add all this useless stuff, I bet you could make it pretty fun to drive, it can't weigh much. |

That is cool enginuety.
You have got to give it to this hungarian kid doing some fine work. He could actually use his wisdom and make it in the auto world.
I have driven the new VW-Skoda this August and was very surprised. A great car. Not quite as technically advanced as this Skoda but never the less. |

It's actually a Skoda - made in Czechoslovakia back then, and now part of the VW group. Its rear engined, about 1100cc. It was an economy car over here - certainly in 4 door form, and butt of more than a few jokes over the years!
We did get some here in the UK, but they're a pretty rare sight these days (I wonder why). |

Apologies if you've already seen this - just had to share it with you all.
I've never seen such a fantastic car - 1.1 litres of pure class. Check out the sumptuous and ergonomically correct interior too.
