I need your honest opinion

Does my Impala look like it's going backwards?

I'm supposed to be making the rear the front, but I can't stop seeing it going the right way with broken back legs.

@noodles This is way too trippy for a work night.

[Exage03040]

@noodles

Yes

[sony1492]

@noodles Naw

[Noodles]

@sony1492 so it doesn't look like it's going backwards? My question was too vague and now I'm getting answers that my stoned ass can't decipher. @Exage03040 said yes, & I'm not sure what was meant by that. Where's my beer?

[sony1492]

@noodles Everything going on in this photo: Yes!

Does it look like it's going backwards: Naw

[SilentbutnotreallyDeadly]

@noodles No.

Does my Impala look like it's going backwards? Yes

The Hemi's side pipes going forward are the largest issue for me. Or is the Engine the right way and I'm backwards?

[Noodles]

@exage03040 the engine is the right way. I don't think people can see it backwards because it's a shape forced into their memory

[gmporschenut also a fan of hondas]

@noodles no. Though I wouldn’t want to hit a leaf

[SSfancy]

@noodles

Yes. It took me a minute to see an impala. Then I realized I was looking at it the wrong way. Now I can’t unsee it the way you intended.

It’s like one of those optical delusions where you have to decide wether the stairs pop out or are built in.

Well done

[Exage03040]

@noodles

I see what you're going for.
First off I saw it as this weird reversed Gasser

[Noodles]

@ssfancy I think we're in the minority. Everyone I show it to sees it the gasser way

[Roadkilled]

@noodles At first glance, I see it backwards. The Impala's sloping rear window and upright front window make it look backwards from what you intend, with the old hood opening looking like a truck bed. The tail fins are the only easy way to see the Impala donor from this view. Maybe a 3/4 shot showing the headlights or taillights would make it look more like you intend.

[Noodles]

@exage03040 that's what I keep hearing

[Noodles]

@roadkilled it does in fact have a truck bed. I stole the tailgate from a RAM.
People still can't get away from the shape.

[Shop-Teacher]

@noodles You've definitely got some MC Escher going on there. I think it looks like its going the direction of the arrow though.

[facw]

@noodles I see the rear as the front. Indeed I didn't even notice the '50s shape right away.

this right here

[SamV8]

@noodles that angle looks like its going the way you planned

[pip bip]

@noodles does look like going to the right of frame.
