    This Excalibur replica just turned up on Kijiji. One of the nicest I've seen.

    It's not my style, but to each is own. The father of a kid I went to school with, used to work at Zimmer Motors in Fort Lauderdale back in the early 80's. I remember his dad dropping him off for school in a blacked out AMC Matador with custom fiberglass side skirts. It look bad back then. He still has the car today but it is yellow now.

    Not a big fan of the Excalibur or the Zimmer vehicles.

    I think they look like they are trying too hard...

    But I think THIS is beautiful:

    I used to make a 'sport' out of guessing what car the main 'body' came from.
    I've seen them made from Cougars, T-Birds, Crown Vics, Lincolns, VW Super Beetle convertibles, Monte Carlos, and probably a dozen more. That green one is the first Gremlin I've seen though.....

    IMO, the back end could use some redesigning.

    I'll bet at least 25% of these that are on the east coast are technically unsafe to drive - and you won't see why from the outside......

    Yougly!

    All of these types cars are cute to me in an ugly sort of way.:)
    I'd like to have one if I already had one of everything else I dream about and had a warehouse to keep them in. :rofl2:

    I wouldn't mind having one of the Crown Vic ones. But I am like you, Cat, I want at least one of everything else I want and a warehouse to store them in.

    A climate controled warehouse with marble and inlaid wood floors like a few I've seen here and on other car forums. My own fleet of mechanics like Jay Leno.

    Make mine retired Playboy Bunnies and ex-strippers. It's a dream. May as well go big time!:clap:

    I'd pass on the cars and just take this option if I had the option!:rofl2:Is this still the Zimmer thread? If so fill mine up with two legged Bunnys. :clap:
