I don't know...I've definitely seen worse. It actually looks OK from the passenger front quarter view.

If it didn't have the boy-ricer rear wing and instead had some type of 1980 IMSA rear treatment, it'd be a pretty cool looking car.

Unless you're a card-holding NCRS member, that is. Then you'd want to drive it onto a set of busy train tracks and 'accidentally' have the engine die.

The seller refers to it as a rat rod. Actually not that bad looking, if you are into mods.

Well there has been links to worse. Not that that's an endorsement. I'll pass.

Look like 59 Cadillac. Works on some rods but apparently not corvettes.

I'd like to see the engine bay and a close up of those stacks. The rest of the car is of little interest to me.

I think they have the concept of a Rat rod all wrong, it does look like it has a nice paint job and interior (although not my style), so Rat Rod it is not...
