well, if it had a real warp drive and phasers I'd take it if someone gave it to me- but very reluctantly!

There is someone in Northern Cali who has made a star trek shuttlecraft out of a white micro-van (it was some odd model, don't recall what it was). It was rather simply done, with painted sections, and less a "tribute to the show" car and more a "make it look like a shuttlecraft" car. That and the wedgy, shuttlecrafty shape of the van actually made it come out pretty well.

It makes you wonder if Bill Gates has a few of these in his garage. Oh wait… I wonder if it has Windows Vista!

Honestly guys that is realyl awesome from an artistic perspective. Im not a trek guy but the fact that someone would take the time and money to do all that is really impressive. To each his own. (But why the hell did he leave the 305 in it......)

would have thought that maybe he'd clear up those front lights or the side lights a bit and make things run a bit smoother together, drop the gay *** blue, and would have done it on a metallic black paint ... but hey, what do I know... I love flying my space ship in a bunch of SEA GREEN SPACE!!

good job on the seats though... the rear... uhh... well.
yes.
indeed.

Eh, I think the theme would've went over better on a 80's Vette or Trans Am that had the "futuristic" digital dash
