I've seen that photo before. I always thought the nose on that thing was freakin' fugly... but that's just my opinion. The engine bay is certainly nice though. But where did all of the electronics go I wonder?

That car is bad ***. Tons of work and a class job. Very nice Hot Rod version of a TC. If I wasn't build a track car I would do a Hot Rod version like that.

I dig that car. Has some serious man hours in it. I was thinking about maybe doing some integra round "spyder eyes" type lights, or maybe those new Hyundai Genesus lights. Those look like chevy Cavalier lights.
Some day I'm going to convert my 86 4 eyed lights to the round BMW projector style lights. I saw it in a magazine on a Black 86 TC years ago. Looked crazy mean.

Those lights are from a Gen-VI Pontiac Grand Prix. I don't think they fit this car, however, you have to admire to workmanship put into it.

One of the main reasons I went out and bought another one of these cars is they were beautiful "car-of-the-year" stock. I don't care for all of the modifications, but to each his own.
