    I still think it is pretty kool. A little less red and a little chrome and that would be a great ride.

    I, too, would have a hard time getting behind the wheel. And I really like to drive my cars. But, wouldn't it really look cool being towed behind a 50's or early 60's car. Sure would look a lot better than a jet ski behind a new BMW or SUV. Someone needs to grab it up soon. Wish I could figure out where to get $7k guickly.

    No Doubt about that, but with a little Hot Rod Ingenuity...It could be changed
    to let a few more pounds behind the steering wheel..hahahaha

    Wow wouldn't take much to make that a show stopper. Someone needs to buy that and make a few gentle changes and you would have a rod that you couldn't walk away from at a show for all the lookielews wanting to ask questions.

    Sounds stout to me----wonder what the cubes are??? Or did I miss that. If I did, it'll be made clear to me.

    That's crazy cheap! How is that not sold yet? You Californians are asleep at the wheel! That's a real steel Ford roadster hotrod built in the 60's with some do***entation of history and it's Hemi powered and runs and drives for under $7K! If that were in the Midwest anywhere, you'd have guys murdering each other for a crack at it at that price.

    Very cool, and while it could use a few tweaks to make it more driveable, I don't think any of the changes it would need would take away from it or be all that difficult or expensive.

    **** in my back yard but I just can't take on another build. I just hope somebody buys it that "gets it" and can do the right stuff to it.
