Never heard of it, but if it pertains to the video I'm guessing it has something to do with creating semi realistic videos. I remember seeing a similar video of "The Beast" a couple years ago...

It both amazes and concerns me that some of the images we see these days can be so realistic, even if only at first glance. Stoopid 'puters!!!
We have it for the kids with a racing simulator seat.

Yep, technology, photoshop and the like can make anything look real/good sometimes so good it truly looks real.
For the kids.
I figured I’d play it more too but I don’t hardly play. They play wreckfest the most, they like to derby.
It’s pretty cool though the seat even came from Summit

The greatest day in my life was when my boys were old enough to play with toys cool enough for me to play with…
Their most famous build, a 1971 Fantom Cuda
What it looked like when he got it.
Well into it's resurrection..
Back on the road again...
I have issue with cars like that. There's only so much bumping and welding that can be done before you have to start cutting and replacing. For a resto mod or non-numbers car it really doesn't matter just make it nice. But for a high dollar numbers matching restoration, well it's only original once, and the more that is replaced, the less of the original numbers matching car is left.
I've seen rare cars reduced down to nothing but cowl sections with VIN tag for sale before. I'm sure people have waded through the murky water and "rebuilt" those rare cars. I stumbled across this '64 Impala convertible cowl with a/c for sale on ebay ($2,600) the other week. I'm sure someone will "rebuild" it since the price on these cars has gone stupid. Maybe one day in some years to come this "convertible Impala" will be for sale. I just hope the potential buyer knows.
my kid wasn't too much into my sim racing rig until the psvr2 arrived.. can't get him out of the cockpit now lmao!

I'm 100% with you on this issue. Perhaps there should be a "60% Rule", or some such, where 60% of the vehicle's structure has to be original to its original build date to qualify it as an "original" car. I dunno. What I do know is that if I purchased an "original" '64 Impala convertible with a/c, the cowl, rockers and quarter panels need to have been with that car during its entire existence for me to be a happy camper.
Need at least a cd player so you can play the appropriate music
“Cruisin down the street in my six-fo'
Jockin the bitches, slappin the hoes”
I don't know if you've see the show or not but Mark Worman (the shop owner) is a walking talking Mopar encyclopedia, and he'll stop at nothing to find year specific original parts. To say that he's extremely anal about making a car 100% original is a gross understatement.
You can buy the cowl on ebay and make it what you want, or make me an offer I can't refuse and get a complete car. My price is really high.
