welcome EKODORE,

you going to cause some controversy on this forum with that car...

a few pic's have been up before of it with different emotions, i for one not a fan, don’t like the side profile at all, looks to stretched...

however i will commend you on the effort and the amount of time and skill required to archive what you have, and at the end of the day it's your car so i hope you enjoy it...

And the paint does look good!

What do VN/P (i think) lovers think?

Cheers
NoMAD

I admire what you have done, and the way you have gone outside the square to create something truely unique.

Sensational body work and a hell of a lot of thought has gone into this custom creation.
That said it is not my cup of tea, but appreciate it for all that it is and all the hard work that has gone into it all the same, great work

With rust free FB/EKs getting harder by the year to source this may be the only option,Ive seen a similar car in the States with single spinner front and rear grafted on,I think they even make a kit.
You should have started with a Falcon

Great looking car,, obviously some like it and some dont, I think its awsom, I like all sorts of efforts and from the pictures it looks like you did a wild job,
a bit of traditional modern hotrodding, I love originals and also the wild and everything in between,, my fb will be an in between
Nice Job

sensational body work, i don't mind it but there are some bits that don't look right but i think it's been explained before why it's like it, for egzample distance from front bar to front wheel and the 1/4's seem to kick up, i'de like to see something like this on a wagon

I too think a wagon or ute with this conversion would look
more proportioned
anyway nice body work and paint

Although Im not a fan of commodores, or anything with lift up doorhandles, the workmanship that has gone into grafting the two styles together is great, and you've ended up with a totally unique vehicle, which to me is what its all about.
Now, how about a ute.
