Can you guys give me a hand with this???
I'm a Muscle Car Nat...and believe it or not my wife used to drive a 71 Chevelle...real nice.....but since the gas started to go up....well she bought an economy car for her....a HYUNDAI ACCENT. As you can imagine I don't know that much about imports. So I need to see if any of you guys will give a hand transforming this gas saver into a cool ride...if at all possible....I don't think there is a rule that says "You can't save gas driving a cool ride".
Anything goes.....ground effect.....the front definetly got a go through an extreme make over......definetly new wheels...about color.....maybe a dark purple....any other welcome.
I just want to change this look cause I know I will drive it once in a while......hey got a let my beast rest....68 Chevelle.
I appreciate any renderings!!!

Yeah carnut I kept the 71 but if you see the link of my 68 Chevelle you'll see what I'm driving at this moment....well but since this Chevelle is for sale, I have a customer making arrangements to buy it...I just talked to him about 1 hour ago. He was here looking at it...I think tomorrow is the day I'll see it go. Anyhow, not to get out of the subject, the 71 Chevelle will go to the shop soon so that's why I want to at least put about 5K on the Accent to make it look descent...Bulldogg will do a good job I bet giving me an idea.

That car is gorgeous. Ill give your wife's car alil play. I know your a muscle car guy, which is mostly what I am, but im working with a hyundai here, so It might be a lil more flashy then you are looking for.

I just did what I know how to do. Basic chop. Lower, Deep rims, shaved some things, I think that the car looks 10 times better than stock already.
I used this image to start..

Hey guys thanks a lot!!!!!
I was busy taking care of some paperwork on my Chevelle (I just sold it yesterday)....WLL BE MISSED....it was my 68.
Now more than ever I need this.....I want to thank you for your time and ideas.
KJB...you're right, this chop looks 10 times better than the stock....amazing what chopping can do to the look of the car....maybe just a color change but the idea is there...thanks.

lil'budman...the chop look very good...I like the finish you put in the whole front..maybe a deep purple instead of the red...but thanks...those wheels look sick on it!!!!

Bulldog and highrev....I'll definetly get some more pics of the car and post them here...I'll get different angle and distances to see what works!!!!!..

Again thank you guys.........Desperate for a change

It's not a dark color, but it seems to look pretty well to me.

Those are some ugly mods, why you have to be so extreme when moding a car? Can you do something nice, like you would actually drive on the road? :(

And you had the nerve to talk shit about people's chops? If you can't do something don't tell others how to do it. :disappoin

^^^ i totaly agree with u man. i wanted to say the same but thought i'd be rude.

@euro19

next time u want to call someone's chop a piece of shit remeber ur own words "Itīs not too good cause I really donīt know how to do this"

I never told anyone how to do it, i just thought those chops are really bad taste and still do. Learn that not everybody is going to have a positive opinion, you have to take the bad ones too, but I guess that hurts you a lot. Iīm sorry if I hurt your feelings, wasnīt my goal, I can take bad opinions I wonīt get offended, gosh Iīm not 10 years old, haha :I cheers

no one ever said that he/she dont want all kind of comments but u did it in quite offensive way, personaly i dont give a f*ck about ur kind of comments, when person doesnt like the chop he writes wha exactly he doesnt like and why, but when some one just says: "oh it sucks" thats not right. Just think that when u write this kind of thing to some one who is new, people who just started they need loads of motivation and help and u dnt help them when u say how shit they are...just my opinion
