In an effort to drum up enthusiasm for Chevy’s new HRR panel wagon, The General decided to enlist the help of some art students and the results hit on both the sick and sweet sides of the spectrum.
The “Skull from Hell” version (seriously, check the red headlamps) of the HHR was developed by Jim McCammon, hailing from Detroit’s College for Creative Studies, and was picked by a number of suits, including Bob Lutz, as the winner of the design contest. The idea, we’re assuming, is to appeal to that much coveted 18-25 year-old Death Metal demographic that’s moving out of their parent’s basement and heading out on tour.
The other skinned wagon took a slightly more practical approach as a flower shop delivery van. Regardless, both vehicles can come equipped in either LS or LT trims, with a 149 HP 2.2-liter or a 175 HP 2.4-liter four. No matter the mill, GM boasts that you’ll still get 30 MPG on the highway — sans amps and flowerpots, mind you.
We’ve put together a gallery of both vehicles below, and if you really want us to, we’ll grab a few live shots on Thursday.
