Sniper you need to chill some. He has his opinion as do you. Your rant is totally overboard. For once I am 100% with Stumpy, chill out, nobody needs your opinion, move on if you don't like others opinions... Here is some advice for you, move on if you don't like others opinions, Do you see the hypocrisy?

Not my preference, but kinda cool in some ways, and not so much in others.
Looks like they kind of ran out of inspiration/energy when it came time to do the interior. Looks unfinished, especially with how they did the instrument panel, trans tunnel, and shifter... besides, how about making the push buttons work with it... you know, dial a win and all that? Just my opinion playing armchair quarterback... it's all much nicer than anything I could put together.
Anyhow, I used to think a classic luxury boat like this should be preserved for future generations, etc., but honestly with the world around us being like it is, does anybody really care? Have fun with it today because who knows where these cars will be in a couple of decades, if not in a museum. So good on the owner to have some fun with it, rather than let it sit in the garage waiting for the full resto that probably won't happen anyhow.

I like it! Many big early cars never get the Pro Street treatment but should! Early 60s Chevy Impala and Ford Galaxy look MEAN and awesome with the big meats tucked in the rear. Anytime a classic is customized WITHOUT the cable TV show 19" wheels is a time I consider a win.

It is nice to see something different. It may not be everyone's taste, but the car is put together nicely. It would look wicked with a blower sticking out of the hood.

As someone who grew up looking at cars from the 40,50,60,70s i thought you were supossed to make tgem customs from very little to wild. No one had 100 percent stock stuff.
