Rx-5 w/ Rx-4 front clip.

http://www.mcdonaldindustries.com/james/rx5-4.jpg

It's a Photoshop job I did but maybe it would be a cool project for someone to take on.

I like the front of the pointy-nose RX-4, and the rear of the Rx-5.

I haven't really made up my mind but I thought it would be a fun thing to try in Photoshop to see what it looked like.

That's pretty wild lookin'. I'm not a fan of the RX-5 rear, nor front end though, but the RX-4 pointy-nose is sick, as is the RX-3 nose.
I have a '74 RX-4 which I bought crashed that has damage to the r/f fender, right side of the frame (which looks like it can be straightened-out), the front bumper and bumper beam, front lower valance, and hood. I have all the parts to do the repair, but on an insane note, I was thinking of a wild '72/'73 RX-3 front-end conversion! In which I also have all the parts for this conversion.
I know, I know. The body width and lines are significantly different, I'm just thinking that it would be a Dr. Jeckle & Mr. Hyde type conversion. hehehe...
So, how about doing a photo shop job of it anyway.
