The Girl Gang Garage took a 1961 Volvo PV544 and a 2019 Volvo S60 Recharge plug-in hybrid…

Say it again

If this was made to recycle a non roadworthy shell and a chassis with no body, then I'd say it's worth it. While it doesn't look the most cohesive (and I'd really change the rims), I'm fine with that.

This looks like those awful 1990s hot rods that infested car shows for two damn decades after they went out of style.

Gives me Plymouth Prowler energy.
The_Strom784@reddit
But the prowler actually looked sorta cool unlike the PT cruiser. It just didn't have the go.

Am I the only one who doesn't have a problem with this?
OK, the wheels aren't to my taste, but I honestly don't like most custom wheels. The rest is fine though.
_ofthewoods_@reddit
I too actually really like the front
forgottensudo@reddit
I quite enjoy it myself

Excellent taste, excellent execution.
Correct_Path5888@reddit
Wow. That looks like shit.
Dxpehat@reddit
The original looks kinda bloated in the front, but they took the bubbliness to the next level. The rest of the car looks beautiful. But the front end is, like, the most important part of the design?!
tetzy@reddit
They answered the question no one gave a shit about asking.
BadFont777@reddit
It's like they broke 2 matchbox cars and glued them together wrong.
Trekintosh@reddit
That is truly awful to look at. That grill and wheels and the frenched headlights, just nothing works here.
RunFromTheIlluminati@reddit
It looks no different than a lead sled painted purple, though?
bubbleddusty@reddit
Nah, lead sleds take the already simple and flowing lines of a car and emphasise them and try to remove the unnecessary parts to make this design lines look better This is taking something old, applying some modern touches to it and having little to no consideration to how it flows together
If this were a lead sled painted purple The roof would be chopped, the wheels would be of a much more discreet and simple design and the grille would work with the body lines more This however is just a body swapped Volvo with very little care put towards the front end look when it comes to design cohesion, it stand out so much from not just the whole car but just the small area around it that it looks like it’s part of a whole different car and doesn’t look like it belongs to the design the rest of the body follows Especially with the grille that has only sharp edges and the wheels that have more design complexity than the entirety of the rest of the car
shart-gallery@reddit
This is pretty awful. Looks completely flat-faced, and the wheels don’t suit it at all.
mtrosclair@reddit
That extra length they added in front of the front wheels to accommodate that FWD drivetrain really messes with the proportions of the car.
radiantskie@reddit
Why that grille
Curious-Hope-9544@reddit
Looks pretty damn cool
i-come@reddit
They made something that looks like melanoma
Wallsend_House@reddit
Dreadful, such a waste
ifhookscouldkill@reddit
Those early 60’s Volvos are so damn nice. This front end is horrendous
