It doesn’t look like much. It’s just a rough looking Jeepster. What’s got my attention you ask?

Kinja'd!!!

It has a supercharged Studebaker engine under the hood. That makes this old school, odd ball hot rod pretty damn cool in my eyes.

Anyone want to help fund a bad idea for me?

I know it’s not the “right” car but I feel like it needs the matron with silver lightning bolts paint job from Grease Lightning.

I can definitely see where that ideas is coming from.

It definitely needs a period correct hot rod paint job when it gets fixed up.

Interior’s all there too! That could make a mean hot rod.

I was honestly surprised to see the interior is intact.

And it is actually pretty good for what it is. I think I see some mold, but most of it is salvageable .

I’d have to give it a good sniff, but I bet almost everything could be saved. I might wear out my little carpet cleaner, but that’s a sacrifice I’d gladly make.

No, rent a heavy duty carpet doctor and go over it twice with some good ventilation. I think all of it could be saved if you knew what you were doing.

Well that would be the first nail in the coffin of any project. I clearly have little idea what I’m doing in most things.

The wake boats have them beat in sheer flakiness nowadays , but yes, valid point.
