Wow . That's all I've got .

Generally speaking, I love E-types....that one, however, not so much.

I love how the wiring harness is all tangled up against the firewall. Of all the things to buy for $15,000...

I wonder if it floats.....it looks like it would have made a better boat than a car......

just because you can does not mean you should. ;-)

I see the old school design elements of 3 great car designers, George Barris, Ed 'Big Daddy' Roth and Darryl Starbird.

Sadly Ed passed away a decade or so ago, but both George and Darryl were at the Portland Roadster Show this year as part of the Legends of Kustoms presentation. Nice guys both, regretably only had a moment or so to say hello to them as I was busy with other things. John D'Agostino and Gene Winfield were also here.

Ed's son, however, brought the "Rat Fink" car to the PRS two years running. That's a unique little car.

We also had "Tow-Mater", the only tribute tow truck that Pixar acknowledges as being faithful to the drawing.

I would advise those that have difficulty appreciating this vehicle's modifications to NOT go to ANY Roadster or Custom car show. These shows are for those people who can appreciate the vision and dedication it takes to produce one of these cars, and not for those who cringe at effecting modifications on a vehicle.

Personally, I would rather see modifications of this sort than to see the vehicle scrapped, but as with any modification, some are very eye-catching and others aren't.
