Just a quick pic of the ImportAlliance coupe in progress. Took it downtown and snapped a few shots as the sun was going down.

I will be posting a build thread soon. Just got to get some extra time.

**ADDED** I put a couple more pic lower down on this page.

I'm all for being different and not biting others **** but I'm just not feeling this car at all. And I also don't understand why people were going crazy over this car?

The shot is nice though.

 

I kinda like it. I mean, you had to know you would get mixed comments on this thing, but it doesn't look too bad. For some reason I'm digging the white walls.

 

I appreciate the comments. We are trying to break the mold. We definitely did it to be different.

 

hell ya i want some white walls!!!

 

different for sure in for the build ready to see what else you will come up with for this one.

 

Wow... that looks awful

 

Only thing i dont like is the wheel/tire! The rest looks bad ***.

Don you could def get a nicer wheel/tire combo on there and still make it look totally different

 

We were going for a hotrod/retro look. We used Honda 15" wheels and white walls with old school Honda center caps. If I could find a steel smoothie in 4x100 I would use it instead.

Kevin- Do you not like steelies or is it the color? Thank you for the compliment.

I think its mainly the color... If maybe you had something else that color on the car it would look better to flow more ya know?

I think an actual old school wheel would look better instead of a steelie

BTW: look at this

 

=/

 

Don,

Great Job that thing is very cool.

 

I'm not sure if you have seen these angles? The argyle on the hood and the valve cover are the same color.

 

Reminds me alot of my buddies in the mini truck scene I've seen several setups like this on Civics. It's not really "different" or "original", so you've missed the mark there. But, on not following the standard nonetheless.

 

for trying to be original
for the wheels. the only car i would put white walls on would be a 63 impala

Don.....liking it!

 

Mr. Sedan if it wasn't for you the car would not have been finished.

 

I like the concept but if you are going for the hot rod/rat rod scene you have a long way to go.

Improvement on the paint would be starters IMO.

I am diggin the rims and whitewalls.

 

ugly. sorry.
