I know the headlights are from a Celeberty, they hacked the bumper, but what is the rest of it made from? I was thinking Dodge, or Mazda, maybe VW???

I just want to make sure that we pick up random parts that we don;t make the same mistake lol

Tim, I'm thinking that started out life as a 2 door Celebrity, The body linesblend too nicely. The door looks like it was part of a Wagon at one time.

But either way, I think we can build that! And better even! Matt and his paint skills, We could have some really sweet flames! But I think replace the Blue with polo green and the silver with pearly white

It probably is, But the Rear opera window appears to be that of a 4 door. They did too nice of a job, welding and smoothing in the rear door.

Yes, it is.  I'm guessing either the Buick or Oldsmobile version of the Celebrity.  The Celebrity's rear opera window was more square, as I recall.  The Buick and the Olds version got the "softer" "angular" treatment.

From the looks of it ... parts of that front bumper also came from either the Century or Cutlass Cierra....

Did you get pics of other angles or the interior, by chance?

I agree Cort, The Celeberty was a squared off rear window. So Yeah, it may very well be from a Ciera or a Century
