I hate to admit it but I agree with Bomber
Never liked it in the beginning and like it even less now

Yeah unfortunately I have to say the same thing. Whilst I love seeing the concept bought to life, it's certainly one very ugly duckling. But I don't think that's the point here, it's a design out of left field, and who knows what a bit of colour might help to achieve with the finished product. True rat rods aren't meant to be pretty anyway 😀
Ten points for effort. It's going to be a one of a kind Torana, and something that we can all relate back to via that original Expression Session idea many years ago.

I like it because it breaks a lot of rules.
Cant see it getting proper rego without putting cycle gaurds on it.
Stoopid rules.
I hate fenders on hotrods.

Still hate it.
I actually think it somehow got uglier with color.
Cheers.

Dont get me wrong, I love Ed Roth's work, and theres heaps of Ed Roth there......But his stuff is only cool because it was groundbreaking and in the 60's.....
This is neither.

I'm sure you'll see it in a top ten list somewhere at some stage, right up there with the Ford Taurus, AU Falcon, Nissan Cube...
