Default Can Anyone shed any light - hopefully this is a shoop :(

Okay, new cars are nice, better handling, etc etc, but imo no matter how technologically advanced they become they cant beat the design and feel of oldschool muscle. This now leads me to this abomination, can anyone shed any light on it, is it an artists impression etc?

I'm pro old school ford but seriously wt............

Artists impression, it's the same 'canvas' as the one they used for the HDT VE

Although Holden went and made a few retro HDT VE's last year

Just as sad as a "dance" remix of a Nirvana track I heard at the gym!!! I'm sure Kurt would be cursing in his grave!!

There was a HDT VE in Targa West last year, and it looked a bit wrong as well, but don't underestimate the desire of 50+ year old men who missed out the first time around.
You only have to look at the amount of BA-BF Falcons with shaker scoops fitted to their bonnets to realise taste isn't something all car enthusiasts have....

There was a stand at Motorvation selling the conversion drive in - drive out for 20k+

They are the work of Melville Holden. But rest easy in the knowledge that the one he took to Targa Tasmania did not make it back....epic dowforce fail = big crash!
