    i'll publish archive pics of the car in action, but it's impossible to get them in hi-res so i'll publish them somewhere else

    do you guys actually realise what you are looking at? Underneath this plain polonez sits a real Stratos. It must have taken some courage to make that conversion...

    Indeed. I think similar things should be done more often, for instance, there are far too few Ferrari based Lada's out there...

    You see, these things work both way. I still remeber quite vividly one foggy evening in the late 1980s, when I saw a red Ferrari Testarossa parking on the street:

    Hmmm... Ferrari? In Soviet Estonia?? Really??? Lets take a closer look......
    What, plywood?!??
    Bollocks, it is a bloody self-made kit-car based on Lada


    Since then, I have never ever mistaken a Lada for Ferrari

    Yes, but only one way is gutsy and even interesting.
