Found this today while doing a little salvage yard searching.

In the first 2 pics, notice the black and white 2tone paint. The 3rd pic shows what is going on here.

Why would you do this?????????????????????????

I bet this guy's RHD tyte project ended up in the junkyard when he either realized he couldn't finish and had fucked the car up too much, or ran out of money/willpower.

well if he was taking the time to do this, chances are it would have ended up as a riced out show car. i for one am glad to see it there. better dead than in the hands of some 16 year old with too much of mommy and daddy's money and not enough brains. :icon_conf

LOL, that's in the junkyard that's on HWY 60 near Mulberry, isn't it?

No, it was in Copher's (LQK) in tampa.

Im curious as to how much money was dumped into it. For the amount of money to get the firewall section, steering rack, steering colum, dash underbrace, all the HVAC equipment, ect., they probably could have just inported a complete car with no motor from japan, Great britain, Australia for the same price and just swaped in there motor.
