fliptuner 08-18-2009 06:49 PM

Holy shit...these guys can remake anything!

You can't really tell the quality of the weld until you do some destructive testing or you xray it.

asian_XL 08-18-2009 07:56 PM

well, pretty much every country in asia has these kind of "lego" cars.

the quality of the weld means nothing...it has never put into a crash test.
So once it is in an accident again, it will split in half.

penner2k 08-18-2009 09:41 PM

At least it didnt have a penis..

greendb7 08-18-2009 09:48 PM

I rather take this car than a car that's been touched by Integra girl....:)

ilvtofu 08-18-2009 10:15 PM

If i put that kinda work into rebuilding a car, I would've reinforced it with some CF parts just for kicks, might make it even better :)

hal0g0dv2 08-18-2009 10:19 PM

haha shit

BMW135i 08-18-2009 10:22 PM

i wonder will it undress itself while going at 80km/h?

godwin 08-18-2009 10:33 PM

If the weld is right, the crash test would be the same as a normal car, since there are extra metal the pieces will be stronger. The operative word is right.. ie welds without contamination, done correctly etc.

Look on dubberz and on craigslists.. there are a few families who put together these cars even in GVRD.

i guess this is how they interpret the statement "full documented history" :haha:

like someone just said... i think it was fifth gear that did a crash test using a rebuilt ford escort cabrio that was 2 cars welded together and it folded up like a sheet of paper :o
