Default Behold the Plymouth Mazda-bird...

My automotive students are a fairly clever bunch of bogans when they want to be. Upon stripping the C pillars of a Mitsubishi Magna, one of them decided that the fascia plates looked more than a little like the uprights of a Plymouth Superbird wing. So he fitted them to the Mazda 626 being prepared for demolition derby and added a 'wing'....

Perhaps a Vitamin C (Hemi orange)? paint job, with 01 on the doors? I am planning to add a shaker, fake one off course. All the 'flash bits' will have to be removed immediately prior to competing in the derby...

Car is fitted with wheels off an X series ute...

Great work. Just needs a RB26 to throw in the mix of randomness

I wish I could do something like that but the derby rules are very strict. Originally, a couple of my students wanted to have a go at fitting the 202 trimatic combo we have lying around, and convert it to rear wheel drive...
