Looks like a cross between a Chalon and a Beach boys kit.

Reminds me of the Johnny Cash song about they car built from all the year parts.

Doesn't look bad, unique for sure.
The 911 tail on the decklid doesn't look right. Someone mounted a tail from something like a 90's Chevy Lumina which looked like it was made for the 914 rear deck. |

I bet the heat out of the engine compartment is un-livable.

Losing the wing would make this car a lot cleaner looking.

The toy car in the background is rather ironic. Who knows, it might even be easier to sell.

I kinda liked The Beach Boys Racing Design back in the day! The chopped roof and no top was useless to me here in the North East, but the fat-ass rearend appealed to me… still does, in fact.
Of course the gigantic wing was so perfectly over the top, too. |

Red Dog Racing, but it looks to have the front and rear from different versions.

Weird.. From every angle, it doesn't look right. I thought the Chalon and BBR Monterey looked good from every angle. To each his own.

She’s a keeper if we remove the extraneous stickers and rear spoiler, and get some wider rear wheels. Maybe take those roll bars out and install early 911 seats with no neck rest.
