Looks good to me....better than the Ute....I'll take one if it has at least a 454 in it.

UTE looks much better IMO. A for effort though.

New camaro makes me

I might like your pschop better if you got rid of that budonkadonk by moving the c (?) pillar forward of the rear axle more and shortening the rear overhang.

"I might like your pschop better if you got rid of that budonkadonk by moving the c (?) pillar forward of the rear axle more and shortening the rear overhang."

ooooooookkkkk then. Erm, I don't actually have any idea what you are talking about, i guess you're some sort of donk wannabe... anyway, for proportions reference (rear overhang/ pillar positions etc), please see the image above your post, which is of an er , El Camino I beleive that is,.... and I'm confused how a truck with only two pillars can have a 'C' pillar.. but i'll work on that..
could be worse though, i could've made it green!

I also looked up "budonkadonk" on the net, and once I got by all the porn and pictures/videos of J-Lo i found this in the Urban Dictionary-

"Junk in the trunk; a rotund or corpulent behind; something you can pull up to and put your mug on"

Again I was a little confused, as a) El Caminos don't have a trunk, and b) I wouldn't let anyone put their beverage on my paintwork!

Anywayyyyy, just kidding with ya!


and to be fair, if you only MIGHT like my photoSHOP more, it's not worth the effort... it was just for fun.

Keep it light boys/girls

Paul

Wow...I have to congratulate you. You took the ugliest car ever produced by GM and made it even uglier. I now feel the need to gouge my eyes out with a rusty spoon.

Even though I don't like the car. It's still a decent job of photoshop.

Hey Paul - while I would stop short of saying it is "Fantastic", it is a rather interesting and GOOD design. Would I buy one? Most definitely, rather than that POS Ute. But, that's why they make Fords - someone has to buy them. . .

Good concept.

Interesting photo shop. Thanks for all the free entertainment!
The butt/bed/bonkawonk whatever, does make me think of a pontoon boat though. Hmmm....gives me an idea...how about a hot tub???

Seriously, good PS skills....keep 'em coming.

thanks guys, it was only meant as a bit of fun, not taking myself too seriously.. i was just messing with PS and i thought hmmmm what if??? and voila, half hour later!! I certainly don't fancy myself as a car designer (luckily!)...

anyway, for all the guys who didn't like my automotive J-Lo, I've trimmed it down a bit so now it's more of a... i don't know... Halle Berry maybe!!

Just so everyone's happy, I'll put a hot tub in too....

Later potatas!

Paul

The c (?) pillar I mentioned, notice the question mark, I wasnt sure that the new maro was a true hard top or a coupe, so the last pillar, b or c or whatever, needs to move further ahead to increase bed space and trim out the proportions. IMO.

Very impressive photoshop skills BTW. Keep em coming.

Looks better, with the bed long the wheel base needs to be longer. Too much over hang.
I got to see a Holden UTE SS close up while I was in South Africa. I really liked it.
