Hello Forum,

I don't have many words to describe what I have found on the interweb today... A Pontiac GTO (Monaro) in which the owner has had converted into a 2D Roadster... It's hard to visualise that this car started out life as a "Monaro".

I'm unsure about how to post pics on this Forum but I'll post up a few links and maybe someone will be kind enough to post them up here.

Beating myself in the head with a phone is less painful than looking at these pictures.

I could only find one positive, so I'll just keep it at that -

At least he kept the original tail lights and didnt go the Altezza style.

He designed/built the original 60's Batmobile so it was never going to be subtle....

What's with the Magna Front end on it????

I think the Sub in between the seats is an "interesting" touch! I'm guessing it's there so you can't hear people yelling abuse at you while you drive.

Poor poor Monaro/GTO

I feel sorry for it.

Like cosmetic surgery gone wrong !


I'm also waiting for some one to comment....."I doesn't look that bad, I don't mind it"


:lol:

I think it looks better than the monaros here. At least there is no chev badges on it.
