So while I was waiting to pick up groceries the other day this bizarre Thing drove by...
By the time I got done and figured out where he parked the owner was long gone. But I just had to at least do a drive by and snap a few pictures.
It’s not often you see a slammed (Ford?) V8 ratrod kubelwagen.

I love it. And yeah, probably ford because distributor in front. But that’s not a definite rule, it’s just... 302/351 generally had that in front.

That was my first thought too. But the longer I looked at it the more I realized it was so rusty that it was probably

this sent me on a CL search to find something I would do this too. I found this.
the husk of a ‘60 Nash metropolitan for 150 buc ks. I imagine it as a full open wheeled Exocet type car with a Audi/Volvo turbo diesel engine in the front.

That would be ridiculous in the best way. I love it

There are two of these in roughly the same shape on my local Craigslist. Other than wanting to leave the skirts intact I have had similar terrible/great ideas for them.
