I appreciate the craftsmanship. Certainly the time investment.
If he hadn't used a red LEGO block as his inspiration for the shape, perhaps the price would even seem to be justified.
Cut a foot out of the midsection and give it more of a "Can-Am" sort of look instead of a "box of cereal" sort of look and it maybe could have been a sweet little custom.
As it is, not quite so much. One look at the rear quarter view with the slab side and the out-of-scale wheels, and I'm figuring this thing is perched up on its suspension like a 4x4. No bueno in my book.

What's the saying....."Form Follows Function"
With the big grill and the raised up front end- it does look like it will cool better....

But them you see the rear, all closed and capped, and you realize that if any of that was planned it will surely won't work.
Needless to say this one hurt my eyes too. Sorry Bats
