Nobody tempted ? lol

Lol.... probably not....

I just cannot imagine the genius mind that took a wobbly metro chassis with the crash worthiness of a Ming vase and then cut all the panels off to make it even less safe.... And then execute with such expertise that the thing looks like a Salvador Dali painting.

I ‘get’ most “genre” of the car world, even some pretty ridiculous stuff in the US hot rod and rat rod stuff.... A broad church, so to speak.... But occasionally I find a WTF?

Sadly, this is one such find.....

Why do it?

I suppose it's more worthy of one of those daft "built not bought" stickers that I'm sure we've all spied on something mass produced?!

Apart from that...…??
