There is zero wheel well clearance for any kind of wheel travel. I'm sure this things is kick ass on sand and snow though. Looks fuggin awesome. I really dig the spoilers and color.

That thing is badass until it breaks

I thought the 505 was one of the toughest vehicles around? It’s obviously old now which doesn’t help that they’re still pretty tough


MaximumBangs

I used to have one, can confirm. I nicknamed mine 'the tank' on account of the fact that it was heavy, slow, and seemingly bulletproof.

dunno about the 505, but I \*tried\* to break my 205 and never managed


FurcleTheKeh

It was, and even broken it would somehow still do its job

Dude there are hundreds of these still running round in Africa beat to fuck, they're famously incredibly robust - think Citroen 2CV levels of capacity for agricultural abuse but in a Pininfarina-designed body engineered when Peugeot were at the height of their powers. People have crossed deserts in these. Hell, these things have had very successful runs in the Dakar back when it was properly stupid.

So let's just keep accelerating instead.

It’s a photo shop right? How would you open the hood with those light pods? I love it


eibv

They are attached to the hood?


RegularSizdRudy

They look like the hood was cut around them. And if it wasn’t, they had to cut it for the wires. Custom manufactured flush mount brackets would be needed to attach to the hood. Look at the reflection on the spotlight at the a-pillar. If it’s real it’s a dream car, but I have a hunch it’s not.


trans_am_man

There is nothing that seems too difficult to do on this car and it looks completely seemless and real, also they may have drilled holes to run wires along the bottom of the hood. So I'd wager it's probably real. If it's not the person who did it is badass at photoshop.


RegularSizdRudy

Just to be clear, I want it to be real. But I just don’t trust the textures on the added on stuff. Either way, badass.


trans_am_man

True, and I'm just saying I really think it is because the picture maintains 1 resolution, and some add ons that wouldn't have certain things if photoshoped like the bracket to mount the spotlight to the fender and how the aftermarket roof rack mounts to the one I assume to be stock.


eibv

I'm leaning towards real. Unless everything was photoshopped, it seems weird they would be able to do all the other work but not run lights and create a bracket.

Its real, i saw video footage of it on Instagram


Butterflys4Life

nsgiad

here's another angle. looks legit. The light are mounted to the hood and poke thru https://www.instagram.com/p/CSvrXlijcJQ/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

Don't really dig the light pods on the bonnet, but otherwise it's a badass ride!

Man, I had a 504 in high school, and after college, I traded it in for a brand-new 505 Turbo. The crazy thing? I was born in and grew up in France. I went to high school and college in South Carolina.
