I dunno that does look pretty bad. The Tahoe/H2/Escalade was made from dropping an unfired clay brick from a height of 10 feet and then shaping that out of sheetmetal.
At least that designer had function following form. |

That looks like a growth, not a car.

I agree, At least with this design it looks like only one person was involved. With some of the recent Tupperware designs coming out of Detroit it looks like there are there are more individuals working on them, just they don't talk to each other. Even the Homer makes more sense then some of the designs by committee (where nobody meets).

OMG that is one butt-fugly car. It definitely has earned its title. And I'm a fan of some less-than-purty rides.

Reminds me of the government funded "safety car" prototype built in the 1970s. I'm suprised the government wasn't behind this...this......thing

It looks like it started to melt and then cooled off. Too bad it cooled off.

I give the guy credit for his efforts, considering what he had to work with. It's cool that he restored a bizarre little piece of automotive history. Too bad its so ugly though. It could be a great prop in Halloween Town.
