I'd bet there is someone out there that fell in love with the thing at first sight. I bet the guy will end up selling it and someone will baby it.

There probably wasn't a rough sketch stage. It looks like a build-it-as-we-go type deal. That's why the hood doesn't open.

Remember the Mopar Crossfire? Meet the FoLoCo Crosseyed.

Looks like those Lotus projector lamps are permanently pointed to be most useful for burning ants in the middle of the lane from 30 feet away and not much else. Other than that... It's still listed on the guy's website for sale.

I can appreciate the fab skills and the ambition but holy hell that thing is hideous! Sorry, but a design engineer this guy is NOT! :no: He claims to have sophisticated tastes but can't even spell the word... :hmm:
