I like it! Looks mean and cool at the same time. The carbon treatment, along with the 'Hot Wheels' decal, says to me; don't take it too seriously and have fum too!

Soo...it's not numbers matching?
On a serious note, it looks like a kick in the ***, to take off the street.

I like it for the same reason I like rat rods. Irreverence to all those that take things too seriously. Enjoy it. Someday I will build a C3 rat rod, of course by the time I get to it the craze will probably be over, but it's an interesting idea to ponder.
