Solved: 83. of All., Lea Silver Shark
« on: October 29, 2008, 08:13:50 AM »
If you know this car I'll add one point to your account.
Sometimes it happens that I'd like to have additional informations about the designer, engine or of some characteristics.
I will let you know on these occasions!

Never seen it (I live in South Africa) but I'm sure glad it's in NZ now, so I won't have to see it either. ;)

That is very unfortunate. I can only surmise that it was a combination of ether delerium, jimson weed, DT's and glue huffing that led to that.

I sketched better cars in the 3rd grade. I also knew enough not to actually go out and create them.
Measures with mics, marks with chalk, cuts with axe, beats to fit and paints to match

It's an Excecrable Mk 1, with a sixties Packard front end. The outward-sloping side-window design is especially for passengers with gigantic ears. ;D
