I would have flared the fenders slightly, but even still it is very unique and I like it very much.

Man it has come a long way. I love the way the rear end turned out, and how you have removed the rear doors. Good Work!

looks great nice workmanship

Wow that lookslike a great big pile of poop, from the non uniform sides, to the exposed rivets/screw of the pass side rocker panel, the wheel arches being non circular, to the pass side curve rising at the door seem, man the craftsmanship is horrible...

There is NOTHING special about being different. NOTHING. I do not understand why so many on this board cling to that line of thinking. I have seen so many crappy one off mods that are unique. BFD. It will always be about EXECUTION. The better the EXECUTION the better the mod.

It is clear what my opinion is.

So there is nothing special about being different??? That is the most idiotic statement I have ever read. Being different is what shapes the world and the culture within it.

Props to the OP for created creating his own widebody. Sure it still needs some tweaks here and there, but it will be able to stand out among a lot of other non-different and non-special cars.

Very nice. I've been waiting on the results of this for a long time. The color is throwing me off a bit though.

You have a lot to learn if you believe just being unique or different shapes anything. It is about execution. There are all types of unique mods to cars that look 100% horrible. I am sure you have seen them before. Think there is anything special about them?

You are reaching using a post from another thread on a different topic to justify some position you have on being unique. It is totally unrelated and does not have anything to do with my opinion that there is nothing special about being unique.
