Jason;
Is that double-wide Stewie picture what I think it is? It looks like the cover art on an AMT 1/25th scale model from the 60s.
Be well.

i believe its exterior is so ugly, the headlights are in a wrong position.
Pics would be nice.

After that, it will be the S2200 under an assumed name.

'Sorry Jason;
Yeah, the signature.
AMT was a model company that did cars in 1/25th scale n' would always take the cover art on the box to a ridiculously wide extreme. I'm talkin' a hundred years ago (actually, back in the '60s) If you gauged the width of the cars in the pictures by the driver, the cars would've been like 16 to durn near 20 feet wide.
N', if not for bad English, I'd have no English at all. (But I've gotten pretty good at it)
Be well.

He just compressed the aspect ratio in his sig making the car appear wider and lower than the original pic.

"Compressed the aspect ratio in his sig"? (You know I love it when you talk like that)
What kind'a boost we talkin'?
Aaay! Thanks for the explanation though. I kind'a figured somethin' like that, but with this thing I can never be sure. 'Appreciate you takin' the time to translate it into caveman.
'Godda admit though . . . I was always a sucker for the look of that cover art n' that black hood on the yellow extra-wide Stewie looks pretty @*#&in' sharp.
Be well.

If you insist: if the flix you posted are of the "proto-type S2K" it's uglier'n the south end of a bobtailed north-bound dog. We're talkin' Sears Best, Heavy-Duty ugly here.
I'll give it this though: while the original had a good lookin' nose n' a bulbous butt, if the flix that you posted are remotely accurate, it looks like this version has a good lookin' butt n' Miss Piggy's nose. (No offense Miss Piggy)

The top four are not new and the bottom one looks like a body kit bumper. Nothing special.
