Rainbow chaser is a very very well know car amoungst both the amazon nuts and the custom car sceen. It has been through a couple of revisions but mainly just a change of paint work. I would not call it ugly but some of teh mods are not to my personal tast. Bear in mind how long ago this car was done.

Rainbow chaser is quite a historicaly important car and is full of history. Not many custom cars go for as long as this one especialy so close to its original consept. Most custom cars endup with a total change when they change hands. In some ways it does now belong in a car museum but it would also be a shame to loose it off the roads.

This car pretty much kicked off Andy's reputaion

That amazon was absolutely gorgeous until the horrible twin front lights, i.e. the first incarnation

Jagged Edge is awesome.
The rest are propper stinkers IMO.
Gaudy as a fairy-cake.

Sure not many will agree though.

Each to their own I reckon. One mans heap o junk is another mans masterpiece, either way, you've gotta admire the amount of time and effort put in*.


butchering absolute classics aside though

Beauty is in the eye of the Beer holder, i'd say that it would have been much better left as a saloon, more Led-sled style than a convertible but hey ho.

Oh and i'm pretty sure Jagged Edge lives in a back street in Chealsea
