Does anyone have/seen a cutlass with a regal front clip or a regal with a cutlass front clip? If so can you post pics?

There haven't been too many of these cars done. If you look at the various Gs you'll notice that the wheel arches are shaped differently from model to model. That makes them look awkward if you mix and match. Guys have done it but it's a lot of extra work to make it look right. Mike P's El Camontillac is a rare example of body mashups that came out nice. It certainly wasn't a bolt-together project. The silver/black one at the end of dyrt's linked thread above looks pretty good too but you'll notice the wheel arches had to be covered with big flares to pull it off.

Yeah, it's nothing I'm considering, but I wanted to see if it had been done. I figured the wheel arches not matching might look ugly, especially on the regal, that has body lines moulded specially for the wheel arches.
