Photohunt: Meanest, Scariest automotive face

post-51-013471700 1287449402.jpg

We haven't had a contest in a while.

In celebration of Halloween: Do your best to find the scariest, meanest automotive face, if chosen the winner, you'll receive a $25 Amazon gift card.

Contest Rules:

1. One entry per user.... choose wisely.

2. Kit vehicles and custom vehicles are welcome.... but it has to be a real, physical, life size car. No scale models or CGI.

3. You need not be the photographer, however, if the picture is owned by another member of C&G, you cannot use it.

4. ENTRIES MUST BE UPLOADED TO C&G USING THE ATTACH FILES FUNCTION WHEN POSTING. ENTRIES FROM HOT LINKED IMAGES WILL BE DISQUALIFIED.

5. Entries must be at least 640x480 in size.

6. You can't use "Christine". I already did. :neenerneener:

Voting begins Friday, October 29th at 8pm eastern. Have your entry in by then.

Voting will end Sunday, October 31st at midnight.

The Christine shot obviously has been 'effected'- is that permissible in the contest ?

I'm not entering the contest myself. It's got to be a real car with real graphics...... if it doesn't have flames coming out of the headlights, you can't paint them in later with photoshop.

Being a GM site - here it comes. I always loved this GM concept.

Bah...there's one I'd really love to use of the Lambo Reventon, but I came across this one and for whatever reason I feel obligated to use it...not the scariest, but this car sure is sinister.

hmm...

im sure there are more hot rods that people created to look angry, or evil, but this just comes up in my head, to me it just oozes the "bwahahaha" kind of mad scientist thing

Since Christine is taken... And since most cars can be sinister, but not really scary...

The COE from Jeepers Creepers.

Can you imagine the fear on the homeowner's association parking that in front of your house?

Edit: Yes, yes, I know I am stretching the definition of "automotive"...

I think we just might have a winner, here.

Way too cool.....

One of the car mags described this as a face that inspired the Japanese monster movies of the era. It may have been the low point for Chrysler corp design, a truly repulsive face that only a salesman could love. This is the year of Fury they should have used for Christine, IMO...makes the '58 look mild.

The '61 Plymouth:

That's cool how they used the grille of the '58 in that '59

^ That's actually the '59 grille (it is modified & cut), as B-58s use squares & these are the B-59 rectangles.

Drew, it doesn't allow me to upload. The file is 'too big' yet its only 652KB. It says my max single file size is 1K... I hope that doesn't mean 1KB, as that's entirely impossible. :P

Your "special" group strikes again. I'll have it fixed in a minute.

edit: Try it now.

My personal choice of all things unholy and sinister:

Okay... so someone should use this picture.

*sigh*

the three of you who couldn't follow rule number 4 in the first post want to fix your entries?Just repost the same picture in the thread as an ATTACHMENT not a link. Find an Admin if you need help with this.Any new entries made after my "Closed" announcement will not count.

Oh crap, I totally forgot to post mine! :(

Olds must be busy working on making up a flashy, votable, poll thread.... ^_^

As usual, you always find better stuff too late by accident when your not looking...
