Why? (another ruined vette)

If you want an offroad vehicle, tear up a Jeep.

seems like that old car has been for sale off and on for over a year.
The price is all over the place too.
There used to be a bunch of those things around in the early 80s.
Who knows why he did it, maybe he had a body with no frame.
Someone spent a lot of hours doing the conversion.
Love customs, this one is just not my style.

A real head turner!

However, when someone in a crowd farts, everybody turns to look too.

If I were wealthy and 30k was chump change, I might think something like that would be fun to have just for the hell of it. :o

didnt think I'd ever say this...but I wouldnt mind having it for fun... I have never been into modifications and have a 72, but because it is a convertible, I'd tool around with the kids for fun runs, etc...maybe take to some mod shows. I would drop 15K or so for it. Kinda reminds of the movie "Cars"...but not $30K, at least not me....
