Gt 50%

I don't know if any of you have seen this but I thought it was pretty cool. The Thalon Eleanor body kit for the smartcar in Europe. It boasts a total of 60hp but looks pretty unique doing it!!

That's pretty cool, and nice eye candy to accompany the 50%.

OH DEAR GOD!!! Someones been spying on the art section of this forum and has started building all the CAR-toons and MINIs!!!!

AAAAHHHH!!!!

Even though I hate Eleaor, I am oddly pleased by this. Its absolutely hilarious, and looks just as good as an actual Eleanor

The best way I can describe it is it's like Stephen Hawking wearing a Terminator costume.

If I had enough money to blow... I'd buy that and an Eleanor replica. That would be some fun conversation there!

how many places do you know of that make an Eleanor body kit for a fourtwo? Its my point...they took all of that time to "one off" everything except the wheels. Maybe they ran out of money?.....or beer.....
