Too plastic for me.

This one is a perhaps even more bizarre case of someone building something that works but not using it!

I think we should come up with some "types".

1. A new car that looks like an old school racer but cannot in fact race:
Decafe Racer.

2. A car someone builds that is race worthy but is sold before they do it?
Trailer racer.

Suggestions?

ps what is it about smoothing all the lines until the hot rod looks like a cheap plastic Chinese toddlers toy? I just don't get it.

Having a belly tank lakester, without having a belly.
Is this where I say you should just give your car to me?

I do have a belly. Not a big one but getting big enough to cause concern regarding getting into the car.
