Some things are just unnatural, and should never be attempted. Does the paint job give this car any pop-culture cred via osmosis? Calling it the “General Zee” displays a little bit of wit, but we can’t condone trying to splice in cool with a paint job. Us Gen-Xers will always have a soft spot for the orange Charger with pushbars out front and “01″ emblazoned on its welded-shut doors. Giving that treatment to a 2002 Z-28 does not make it a collector car, even if the abomination has under 40,000 miles on it.
There’s a “Dixie” horn setup, and enough amateur-grade extra wiring is present in the underhood shots to make us cringe visibly. Our favorite modification has to be the muffler, which “has holes added to enhance the sound quality of the V-8 engine.” The dead newspaper tycoon operating the T5-6 is a nice touch, too.
Must be a one-off, ’cause that’s the first we’ve heard of a “Hearst” shifter. Reserve is not yet met at a current bid of $7,100. Us, we’d use that cash as a downpayment on a General Lee replica that’s at least a Mopar, though an Omni GLH dressed up in this type of drag would be equally repugnant.
