    Jury's still out for me, it may grow on me, but at the moment, it just doesn't look right.

    I don't mind the front, but there's something about the rear end that I'm not sure on.

    You reckon you have it bad??? I was thinking the same thing and then realized I started the thread . I think the finished product looks horn though. Much better than the original concept (which is unusual in itself!)

    I was gonna say that would have cost a mint to do. Then read the second article and found out Stuart Appleby owns it, he can afford to spend some coin I imagine

    Damn nice conversion, from the build pics it looked pretty ordinary but the finished product is top notch. He'll be able to take his golf clubs for a round of golf without a problem now, the strut brace may give him some issues though.
