the back is from a vette and the front is from a GEO storm.
Why didn't he used the isuzu impulse front while in there, it is the best looking of the two for the same hookup points.
By the way the back end must be quite heavy of bondo on this thing as I see no cutoff between fenders and rear bumper.
that being said, I like the hatch

I was actually thinking of doing sort or a corvette style back end... Not even close to that one!!! But I think it scared me away from the idea.
But a geo storm front end....c'mon, really
I do like the side though... wasn't even going in that direction. but I think i may now.

I don't mean actually putting a corvette rear boby on. I was going to bring the back out about 3 inches and and shape it corvette style. Fiberglass from scratch. Sort of a 91 look.

I've done some crazy bodywork on mine to enhance the aggressiveness as opposed to totally change the look, let me just say that bodywork is the biggest most time consuming annoying thing ever, I'm lucky I'm towards the finishing end... Have fun with it

…there actually was a nice kit available over twenty years ago that would turn the rear end style into something corvette like, without loosing the hatch.
It didn't look bad at all… huhw,
I mean, it doesn't look bad at all… 
Cheerio, Harm.
