Chevy, although the interior of the Ponch is better, but the wide WWs .....

and wheels are not my choice. The wide WWs kill it, IMO.

The winner? The person who was paid to create the more expensive one.

Both cars look really labor intensive, but I don't understand the point of either one. The end result is different from original but no improvement.

Impala

I agree that the interior looks stark,but the top chop is very neat,and retained the roof proportions nicely.
