The Car Straight from Hell...
Talk about a project car hell... Check this out. It's a Camino-ized 1990 Jaguar XJ-S. For those of you familiar with jalopnik.com, this monstrosity scored an astounding 286 points on the "How Jalopnik is Your Car?" test.




Yeah, that's right, 4 throttle bodies.


Old school Recaros. Just sitting there, not bolted down. Bad frickin' ***.


No discernible interior. Score.


This baby is just screaming for flat black paint and 12 straight pipes spewing flames.

Yeah, I'd take this on if A.) Someone hadn't beaten me to the auction, and B.) I wasn't a broke-*** college student.

Yeah. It's Spanish for "have rough sex with your wife, kick your dog, yell at your kids, and get back to your wife." It's that kind of car.

Re: The Car Straight from Hell...
Yeah, I made a chop of something like it with a Chevy front end, I think that's how it should have looked. It's in the Photoshop section:
