Wasn't that the typical Gemballa Avalanche conversion? Ugly as sin, yes, but at least it had the "go" to back up the "show".

When I first learned of this car it was in a R&T "Exotic Cars" edition or some such. IIRC it was a deep burgundy with painfully white leather interior. Ick!

After looking at this thing again I realized what it looks like.
Just picture in your mind that it is a bright green.
You know, that thing the green goblin flies on in spiderman

I'm not 100% on this, but it almost looks like that car started out as a 911 .... -- Curt

I think it's a German Flash Gordon. I'm sure he can find a buyer in LA.

Well lets put it this way, if a guy was driving it I would suspect he might be trying to compensate for being the smaller of the trees in the forest. If a chick was driving it would be cool with me as I could understand the appeal. So to sum it up, a chick car for sure.

You know guys, we should create a "Porsche Rescue" foundation that monitors EBay, buys up cars like that and either returns them to stock condition or crushes them (after removing all of the good stock parts, of course ).

Wow, 34 Gebotsubersicht already!!! Only 2 Tage, 2 Stunden left.

It looks like a 300ZX from the front.

Does it come with fuzzy dice and a crushed velour interior? Last time I saw it, it had whitewalls as well. Please someone buy it and part it out.
