Oh boy. One of those.

The problem (well, one problem) with this kind of hot rod is its lack of
general appeal. The instigator is probably the only person who thought it
was a good idea. No matter how well it is executed (and this one really does
look remarkably polished), the other hot rod guys are just going to go
"huh?", and LBC fans aren't going to be too thrilled, either.

Basicallly, if you are thinking of building something like this, you had
better plan on keeping it long-term, because it is not an easy thing to find
a buyer for. If this guy wanted to build a hot rod to sell, he should have
stuck with Fords.

To be fair, it sounds like he picked up somebody's half-baked project and
finished it. Good luck, I say...
