Ugh...

Double ugh.

But Danr, think of all the young girls you could take for a ride.

The "bring a trailer" site currently has 1960 AC Greyhound on its auction. Its a four seater, and pretty spiffy lines. Its powered by a "huge" straight 6, 4 spd. Its in Holywood, and needs just a bit of work, but how cool!

Why stop at two seater when you could convert this to a stretch limo?1965 Shelby Cobra Roadster 2 Door | eBay

I'd love to have the Greyhound, cool car and even looks like the early Aston Martin. Can you imagine the cost of locating and buying parts for it though

Wish I could un-see that. What's the deal with those bumpers?

To each his/her own I guess. The ad says "first of its kind" and I am guessing last also...but hey, I drive a rolling mirror so....

Here's an old CC post from 2003 by our own Jeff Classic: Back of the BUS!!
Post has several photos of a Cobra Limo.

Now I've seen everything. Ugly butt ugly people.

[FUNFER2]

This is not the worst I've seen, but what is with the rear fenders arch ?

The stickers all over, like the air cleaner half circle below the drivers,......DOOR ?

The two on the drivers front fender ?
The Shelby on I think, is the fuel tank ?

Check out how the gauges are not square with the edges on the white stripes on the dash.
The gauge on the left is further in from the edge than the right ?

What's with the woopie cushion shifter boot ?

The under side of the hood scoop isn't finished or painted ?

My photo's won't load, but here's the ebay link.

That is a CMC/Streetbeasts kit (hoodscoop shape, wide lip/ledge below the rear cockpit cowl, etc). If you look at the scrunched oval shape of the wheels in the side views, you'll see that the photos have been severely distorted in width, which accounts for the really weird looking shape. The rear is jacked way up as well and that just compounds the assault on the eyes.

I can't imagine a seller looking at these pictures and thinking they're a good representation of a car he wants people to like enough to place a bid on.

[FUNFER2]

Oh, so it's a ugly street beast. Is the wheelbase like 98" ?

[Karl Bebout]

I noticed an AZ license plate. Anyone seen this car before? I haven't.

[Bob Broberg SPF667 460BB]

It's listed as for sale at : Used Car Dealer Phoenix AZ Preowned Cars near Mesa AZ-Liberty Cars and Trucks 3010 E Bell Rd., Phoenix

30th street and Bell rd is about 5 miles from my house....and no I am not going up there to look at it!

[Karl Bebout]

Phx Mike, you wouldn't need to use nearly as much Windex on it.

[Bob Broberg SPF667 460BB]

Needs more zip ties.

[Phx Mike]

It needs more than zip ties...but based on the distorted shape there must be something wrong with the pictures like Buzz said above. Can't understand why a dealer would allow the photos to go on their site that way.
