Interesting. I think if it's a 6x4 then it's cool just because of the engineering effort, but if the rear axle is free-wheeling and doesn't have brakes then it's not cool.

Another "ute" to add to the thread. TBH I am not sure whether I like these for being different, or hate them for wasting both a van and, in this case, an RS2000 nose cone

The problem with these pickup conversions is that the beds are too short and the roofs are too high.

I think South Africa are still in the 80's with car styling. They'll be advancing to tiger stripes soon.

Big bling wheels are a foreign thing aren't they?

Why do you think that ??

Because they are almost only seen on South African and Australian cars. Perhaps I should have been more specific.

I have never seen anything that large on an Australian Escort! The average oversize you see is 15in and thats because of the huge decline in good tyres and wheel styles available here in 13in and cheap big brake kits that require 15s. Even so 13in is still the post popular size for our Escorts and even more so for our Anglias and early Cortinas. The big wheel / rubber band type look is pretty much the domain for the the turbo Japanese car brigade.

Got to love crager ss wheels and thrush outsider side pipes, there rest is bonk though. In my opinion, and I am a seventies man from the home of cruising cars! Still I have seen worse I guess.

Those lenses used to be one of the biggest MOT and taxi test failing near us. We had loads of the granadas as taxis, kept me in pocket money changing camshafts at 3am on a Sunday morning when they'd finished their night shift !

Looks like a Chevy Vega from the front?

Some people brake the laws of man and some break the laws of nature, surely these two break a bit of both? Just when I thought no one could find something worse than the last you guys come up with those.
