WOW. AMazing TR!
« on: January 10 2011, 07:43:35 AM »
Stumbled across this on Cardomain - I am floored. One of the nicest TR's I have ever seen.

He guy is TUrbo2dr - apparently he's a member on TBS.com too. Has a turbo Malibu, ths TR, and converted a GN to an Aerocoupe! I'm not a huge fan of the Aerocoupe design, but damn, he made it look good.

TONS of pics on this link, I really like the dash conversion.

His work is definitely superior. Let's see if we can find a doctor to do a good job of attaching a penis to a beautiful girl.


If anyone posts "it's an addadictomy!" I'm gonna scream.

That silver T is beautiful. I'm on the fence about the GN Aerocoupe... But it is a very nice car nonetheless.

Like I said, I'm not a big fan of the look, but I heartily respect the work, time, and effort that went into it.

I never was a fan of the AeroCoupe. The only thing uglier than that was those damn Grans Prix 2+2's.
