That has to be the poorest effort ever....looks like the 'A' team knocked it up in their shed whilst pissed.

Sure it runs, but I think they guy has spent a lot of time (but probably not much money) on the looks; cutting panels here, putting in wooden seats, cutting out pillars, suicide doors, changed the boot hatch, installing a swing.
The cosmetic work probably took as much time as the mechanical work.

It looks really rough, but I guess that's intentional.

Perhaps it's a statement about how much work and effort people put into show cars that only ever travel by trailer and aren't used for driving.

That's an interesting way of looking at it.

The guy who has done that is simply taking the p1ss and done it to provoke a reaction, so with that in mind he's done a pretty good job. :afro:

i absolutely hate this 'rat look' and think anyone who does it is not only ruining a good car but should be shot!
