Remember Hindustan Motors Contessa? The popular and stylish sedan every 90’s movie used to feature? The sedan is no more in business though. But some car enthusiasts still drool over the design of the car. Meanwhile Modsters Automotive, a Chennai based car modifying agency has done a splendid job with the HM Contessa. The agency has given the Contessa such makeover, that the car looks like a poor man’s Dodge Challenger.

Inspired by the Vauxhall Victor (1972 – 1976) the HM Contessa has been known for portraying a muscular appeal. The long hood, sharp and stylish design the car stood out among the crown. Even in those days, the car had elegant design with chrome treatments. Here, the modified Contessa has been dubbed as Project Grey Hound.
