kenny Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 It started out as a Cutlass, not a Regal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GonneVille Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 Umm, half-and-half? No thank you. The only decent thing Pimp My Ride ever did was NOT do that half-and-half Escort. I don't care if he stuck in a roll-cage, it's still attached to a compromised body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GonneVille Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 The body modification list to turn the Olds into a Buick clone was immense. The car was cut in half, and the back clip was welded on from a Buick Regal to make it look like a Grand National. Sorry, but that one is FAIL to me. Should found a Regal and not compromised the body by having huge weld lines all through the frame. To get the Regal quarter windows, too, he would've had to cut right through the greenhouse. One cut all the way across the floor pan and rocker, and two more through the A-pillars to avoid having to weld on the roof panel. It destroys any structural strength in the car unless it's shored up with a shit-ton of welded-in bracing. To me, it would have been coolerto build the Diesel Cutlass he started with into a beast, rather than make yet another fake GNX. God knows, there's more GNXs on the road now than the factory ever fucking built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenny Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 He used a diesel Cutlass so he wouldn't have to worry about smog laws... He wanted a GN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
