This is a prefect example of a car that was for sale on CL and other venues for a long time with no takers. No one need cry he didn't have a chance to save it from a customizer. Those guys are on the lookout for unusual cars that are cheap raw material, many 22nd-23rd Series cars are that.

The worst problem with chopped tops is they make an already bottom-heavy looking car even more so. To his credit, he is a skilled metal worker that appears to have the job quite well. The generic powertrain is typical, makes for a far less interesting custom. If someone designed a proportionally attractive car, this fellow could do a nice job building it.
