We received this outrageous little morsel from DamnElantra (Thanks Man!) of a Custom Tatra 603, that was turned into a Coupe, with an 80’s monochromatic paint scheme applied, a rear tail spoiler, doing its best interpretation of a Czech Drug Lord’s vehicle of choice. What the hell is going on here? Read more after the jump…
There is absolutely no information pertaining to this car other that the price for this very white ride is €100,000 – or a little over $121,000 at current exchange rates – and that its a 1968 model. Turning an Iconic 603 Sedan into a Coupe is cool enough, but why go any further with the 80’s Cocaine Theme? If you want to see the listing, go here!
So the question remains, is it Good, Bad, or Ugly? Comment away!

It's a lead sled based on a Tatra instead of a Mercury. If you're into lead sleds, what's wrong with that? Though the front is a little boy-racerish…
-
well, OK, the back's a little boy-racerish too… I don't see reason to hate it too much

Awww, man. I just ate breakfast. Having a hard time keeping it down now.
-
Fine. I will go there. I REALLY like it. It has curves where other cars have nothing. Red interior? Yes please! This is awesome.
-
Agreed, Awesomeness well executed.
-
The front of this specimen reminds me of a blind cave trout. The rear end is pretty impressive, though, especially when you consider it's supposed to contain an air-cooled V8. If that's missing, FAIL.
-
Some say, it will give nightmares to those who gaze upon it, and that if it runs you over you will die of embarassment…
-
And about the lead sled thing, I absolutely adore them, but that is not the way to do it.Especially not using these wheels and painting it white and to paraphrase CptSevere "blind cave trout" eyes for headlamps. Big, big fail.
-
I like sleds and hot rods. This seems to be more in the line of a Pro Touring Hot Rod. While this car is not my cup of tea, it seems to be done well and could grow in me. Imagine seeing this come flying up on you in your rear view mirror…could be cool.
-
Actually, the more I look at it and the more I think of blasting down a highway in this, I am starting to like it more and more. The WTF factore from other drives would be off the charts. I like it.

Just horrible. Not a fan at all.
-
In some ways it almost works. But not in enough ways.
-
Well, it appears to be well-executed design with nice crisp lines, but it just doesn't do anything for me. It's the front end. It's like the car was made of soft clay and somebody smacked on the nose with a shovel. And the headlamp arrangement/size doesn't work at all. A blind cave hotrod.

The original Tatra 603's were pretty cool, although I'll admit that the frond end takes a little getting used to. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tatra_603
Given where it started, I'll give this the thumbs up. -
I'll take it, where do I send the cashiers check I got from my Brother's uncle-in-law's friend that is worth a little more than the asking price? Just go ahead and cash it, ship the car and send me half of the rest.

You're from Nigeria?

-
With better head and tail lights, i'd say ya…
-
THAT is the best looking Tatra I've ever seen. Wire wheels? Who knew?
-
The Porsche wheels make even more curious.
I'd have to see it in person (Hooniverse goes to eastern Europe!) to judge. If it's got a NOPI-grade body kit going on, no. If it's got impeccable interior and body work, then…well… -
why couldnt this be done to a tiger?
-
Druhý ventilátor jen kopl do, yo!

The back end looks wrong on the car, so does the lack of trim pieces. Other than that, it's hard to complain too much about a rear-engined V8.
-
NJhoon said it- I'd buy it just to watch people's freak-o-meter's peg out. Needs full-sized headlights and Cadillac taillights, tho.
Now, I wonder if anybody's modded a T77 or a T87? -
WTF IS THAT!
-
That is from a (Crappy) SciFi movie called "Starship Troopers", and its suppose to be the "Brain Bug". Ugh… that movie was so bad, with a list of "B" movie actors like Casper Van Dien, Denise Richards, Niel Patrick Harris, and Jake Busey (you know, the son of Gary Busey)
Rent it on-line, because you'll regret owning it….-
Thanks for the info! But man, that is a nasty looking thing!
-
Neil Patrick Harris's high point was either as Doogie Howser or as 'himself' in Harold and Kumar Get Incredibly Baked and Get Harold's Camry Stolen by Neil Patrick Harris. I haven't decided which… probably the latter.
Oh, and Starship Troopers (the game) knocked my old computer flat, thanks to the Radeon 9250 it originally had; the entire screen would turn blue, then red, as I was attacked, because I couldn't see a thing. Upgrading it (to an x1600, whoo, that's another nightmare…) made only the edges glow, as the designers intended.

Following Ford's positive results in the executive suite, GM's attempt at leveraging talent from other transportation sectors by employing former EMD engineers to create the next Monte Carlo was considered less successful.
-
Hey, Robert Byrd proved that being a former Klansman doesn't have to prevent you from winning and continuing to hold public office, so there's still hope for this lovely Hudson Italia if it renounces its hate-filled ways.

It is awesome to see this blog is finally getting the attention it deserves Keep up the terrific work.

Where's Mr. Poe?
