AFAIK, there is no thread for customized cars here, and since they rarely fit inside company lore threads, I sort of think that a thread would be useful. So, anything that’s not factory stock, feel free to show it off here.
Gone surfin’ in 1977 - 1963 IP Rugger panel van, custom vs. factory stock.
Was asked to make this for some friends on Discord. Didn’t posted because I said I was done with this version of the Brasilia. They wanted to see a whaletailed Brasilia, so here it is.
Funnily enough, a Brazilian 3D artist made the same thing at the same time. His is much better than mine though.
Boot Scootin’ Bodyworks were approached by the famous Banker-Rapper, Bill-U-8nt, to modify a number of Gendarme’s he’d “procured” to be able to handle, quote unquote, “harsh terrain”. Never one to turn down paying work, BSB converted the Gendarme’s into All-Terrain explorers by ripping out the V8, installing a Goingns 4D30DTi turbo-diesel and improving the Gendarme’s ability to traverse harsh terrain.
Bill-U-8nt was then rumoured to have used them to make “deals” near the Californian border w/ Mexico but BSB is unable to confirm or deny these rumours, simply stating “I don’t know what he does with them, we just mod 'em and sell 'em”.

OK, first I’ll provide lore…
Chesterfield is a bespoke coachbuilder who decided to thoroughly modify multiple MkII Keystone D2200’s with the aim offinding buyers who could be duped into thinking it was a luxurious cruiser and thus buy one, hahaha!
Now, with the details out of the way, I decided to “get Shwifty” and practice my 3D fixture skills on this donor Keystone… Needs more work, I reckon, hahaha!

Download if you dare, hahaha!
@VicVictory, I did an oopsie, hahaha!
This feels familiar…I had a Volvo 164 in a similar shade of green. 
The idea behind the Chesterfield D22-61 reminds me of the Vanden Plas 1500, a tarted-up version of the mass-market Austin Allegro that was sold to buyers who had a relatively small budget, but still wanted something that felt like a more upmarket car.
Hey, I know that ugly nose!
At least yours seens functional, and not mounted on the frunk.
Whoops I posted in the wrong thread let me put the car I meant to post here later

Edit: the computer gets a 12.8…I’ll use my ps4 controller later to see if I can get better times.
And this fine example, all OG, sittin on swangas.
Schnell L4 Rallye retro 1985.
Powered by a 2.3L D4 engine making 166HP, its plenty to rip around the dirt tracks and roads. It has been fitted with a Geared LSD and a 5-speed Manual. It has the Europe market stuff on it, Plastic on sealed beams, No sidemarkers and 5MPH bumpers and chrome fascia trims. 0-60MPH is in 6.8 seconds, Way faster than the Schnell D4 SUV that originally had this engine in it. It’s far more fuel efficent.
It has no ABS too, making it deadly to use the brakes in cases to the point you might have to do a handbrake turn since it’s FWD, Gearbox being ripped out an Hakumai from the 90s and grafted on to make it fit to the 2.3L engine. It weighs 2161LBS, Or in KG, 980.5. It’s extremely light
2020 AT 722-R dragon’s breath, a revamp of the 2020 AT 722-R revamped Widebody (huge thanks to @KSIolajidebt for the original body kit)
