In the early 70's I worked restoring telephones for sale to corporations. We actually did market "flocked phones" in a number of themes. Sales were initially good, however, just because you can do it, doesn't mean you should. The technology for long term use wasn't ready. Narragansett Bay
The hex paternities is cool, but a bold color under it would have been better. Maybe a metallic green. The Pacer is just ugly. I don't think it's possible to make it cool.
Agreed. Except for the paint job - I like what Edd did with it. The problem was that there is just no way anyone will pay that much for a Pacer. Every car has a limit to what you can do to it and get your money back. And Edd went WAY beyond it. To be fair, I am not sure anyone outside of North America could fully appreciate what a dull rep the Pacer has.
@@aaryeshg.6526 My father actually owned one - it was rather comfortable to ride in, for a small car. The problem was AMC advertised the HECK out of it. It was originally supposed to come with a rotary engine. But when that fell through - it ended up being a wide, small car with fairly, crummy gas mileage (because it was quite heavy). So sales flopped and it was perceived as a big dud for AMC. On top of which, it's mostly the headlights and the fish bowl look of the car that got the most criticism. I always thought it was kinda cute - though I NEVER liked the headlights...too bug-eyed.
This turned into a stunningly looking car. Looks like a lunar module. And that's frankly the only place you can actually drive it: outer space. That all white interior will get messed up on this planet as soon as you set foot inside.
Where is Edd? This brilliant rave mobile was radically underappreciated. A lovely work of art! 💛
I liked how much visibility you had driving this car.
We use to name it Fish tank
Excellent video friend, bring many memories this car
Wait till the wrap starts to peel off 😂😆
My friend had a pacer back in the 80s, it was quite a cool car.
UD$5,500 for this wrap?! If that isn’t robbery, I don’t know what is!
Just when I thought the pacer couldn't be any worse
You can't make a silk purse out of a pig's ear! lmao
I miss Edd China much love from USA

That paintjob is a huge NO.. Could've been a great project really. The only car Edd didn't do right..
I actually do not know why people hate it? I can understand on the rear lights are odd, but why is the whole car hated? :-/

@@DeputyNordburg well that cemented it. I guess if the car was made by.... Hyundai then people would accept it lol. 🤣

Incredible failure on all levels.
at 1:40 it looks like Ed used the glue gun on his head :P
The fact that the design is polarizing means it's successful in this case
Sorry Edd... Good try however there is nothing you could do with a Pacer to make it cool

Qué chida nave.
PONTIAC HONEYCOMB Wheels! Nice touch Ed !
Are you on crack
Di tunggu subtitel bahasa indonesia nya ?
The black wheels are not the right choice.
Where is it now? Rusting in a driveway. 😢
You cant polish a turd!
Should have left the wrap off.

This is by far the worse car I've ever seen .
No thanks
put a 5.3 ls chevy engine with a 6 speed manual dual exhaust that will get attention
I feel like they really made that car bad
Bad idea, convert a cool car in a clown car.
