[Amc-list] World's Ugliest Car

[mikebailey@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I've walked around a few of those "Johnny Cash" kit cars.  It's a pretty
common "midlife crisis" ride in Scottsdale.

There's nothing I can really pin down, but something makes me really
uneasy about the whole shape. In automotive styling, proportion is
everything.  Maybe it's just because I'm so used to seeing the 57,58,59
that I can't let go of the way they look already.  In a way, this is kinda
like how a 68-70 AMX looks all stubby and fat, next to a graceful, early
Javelin...  But somehow the Gremlin pulls it off next to the Hornet.
Gremlins are cool, that's all.

P.S. as a designer, he seems to make a pretty good priest.

This is what you get, but I don't think the Priest's car will lose it's
title of
ugliest.
