I think you are looking at this from the wrong angle - probably the back which is hideous. BUT, if you look at the as a replica & not as a wedge it isn't a bad example of this style of car which, although fairly tasteless, does look like it has been well constructed - except the back, which no-one can deny, is hideous.
The front fenders, grill & bonnet (hood) seem to have good proportions & I actually like what they have done with the swage, turning it into a triangle creating a bit of a Mustangesque effect. Most people are stymied by the swage but that works. Imagine that on a normal wedge only the vertical would be behind the door closer to the wheel arch. I could live with that on my car. Let me just do an artists impression here...
The fake ragtop is a lowpoint. They are common on that style of car but that doesn't make it acceptable. If everyone dribbled it would still be disgusting.
So forget it is a Wedge & just think what kind of car would Triumph build if Hugh Hefner was on the phone looking for a gift for one of his girlfriends - probably the occasionally moody one that sometimes went a week before shaving her legs & had a small problem with foot odour - I think this would be it.
And on that bombshell people, its goodnight!
