Yup! Like I said earlier, it mimics the old gen Subaru Impreza WRX STI's Hood scoop! They've executed it well but it does NOT suit the Fiesta in any way at all!

Gosh! That Fiesta on the previous page must be standing at a radioactive site for a long time. Badly mutated.

It was probably parked at a club. Usually, the city's clubs have separate parking for chauffeur driven cars and owner driven cars.

This Is Not How To Fix A Mercedes Hood Ornament

Certain elements of society think it's great fun to rip hood ornaments off fancy cars. Normally the owner replaces it with a new one. This guy did it with wire, unsuccessfully.

After a year on the Vintage and Classics thread, I have be checking out other threads and found this Thread, what a delightful surprise! Now I have a second home to visit.

When visiting a Calcutta Restorer, Bumpu Sircars Works, I took these photos.

With so many "ME too Cars" around, it's great to see the Indian Creative juices flowing. Living in Toronto and wintering here in Calcutta, it's great to see this "Art Form" developing here, and with the very, very inexpensive labour costs I am looking forward to seeing some great Custom Cars.

The covertible seems to done well except the front bumper rest seems to be good and what's the base car of that ,is that a celio or escort.
The Indica seems to be an eye sour with too much Bright Red color and is the Black paint a matte one.

Can someone tell me, which car is the maroon car?
