I also had a pt cruiser phase. Still dig the convertibles with the sportsbar removed. <a href="http://s991.photobucket.com/user/DOMER94/media/moon-pt-cruiser-wheel-covers_zpsed652be9.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i991.photobucket.com/albums/af32/DOMER94/moon-pt-cruiser-wheel-covers_zpsed652be9.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo moon-pt-cruiser-wheel-covers_zpsed652be9.jpg"/></a> |

Starting with this, which i don't hate, but i do wonder what they were drinking/smoking when they came up with it...  I'll bet it handles great lol.  Is nowhere safe from the menace that is Pokemon? So you wanted a Chevy SSR but had a Chevy blazer...  No problem, just glue a PT Cruiser front onto it and voila...  Chevy SSR... It's exactly the same... No really!  To be fair to the creator of this masterpiece, adding a Moose to the roof has not made the PT Cruiser look any worse! Ok, now some i've found that i do like, starting with this little photoplop!  Interesting concept, it's a wonder someone hasn't done something similar to one.  This faux 'Woody' i kinda like.  And i like this stock as a rock (presumably) gold one.  This little pick up works for me too... Actually it probably works for me a little too well!  This works for me the most, plain, simple, understated... Perfect. |

I had a PT for couple of years. And was totally reliable and was pleasant to drive.. Lowered it and ran it on some 17" golf rims. But did photo shop the standard rims to make them look like 19" to see how it would look. Thought it looked rather good.  |

My theory is that the ones are modified badly are owned by country and western fans who are a little extravagant shall we say? Kind of like a car with chrome shirt collar corners.  I pass one every day which has a spiders web design made out of stick on chrome strips across he tailgate. |

I think with the PT that less is more/better.
A nice set of wheels, bit lower and a great paint job = Job done

I'm not the biggest fan of them, interesting concept in terms of shape, but as some of the photos posted have shown they can be truly horrible when hit with the 'modified' stick, and you can see where the reputation they have comes from.
There are a few that have been posted up that have however been very nicely executed by someone that knows what they're doing, and if they'd all been modded to a similar standard then perhaps we'd all want to drive them?
Personal favourite is the pickup with the flames on the bonnet.
It leaves me with ideas of something lifted a bit with a four wheel drive chassis and running gear underneath. Perhaps an old Disco...

Hi new to RR but felt I had to put my daily on , had it 11 years and it has never missed a beat. Also not been covered in glue and rolled through Halfords and collected loads of stick on chrome. 2.2 diesel with 111k on it. Know as The Boss or The anti chrome.   |

It winds me up because I really love them but then at the same time I can't stand them, and theirs nothing worse than saying to someone "I've go a PT cruiser because they always think you're one of them cranks who've covered it in tat.

Also not been covered in glue and rolled through Halfords and collected loads of stick on chrome. 2.2 diesel with 111k on it. Know as The Boss or The anti chrome. See, I always thought they were designed and driven by people who thought wearing knitted Tank Tops was trendy and a bit edgy. Then I saw this...... A lovely looking car, that. |

What colour is it? Cheers Duncan |

It's a standard Chrysler colour called deep cranberry.Apparantly it was a really rare colour back in the day and if you wanted it there was a long waiting list so most people wouldn't wait.

The green van is a bloke from stockpot and he did the convertion himself to show off his work,He has his own garage and body shop and his work is brilliant.The picture doesn't do it justice as the paint work is mint.
