That would be an awesome track *****, I use to do work in Farmington. I'd love to check it out.

That's pretty cool, would be even better with some different wheels!

The seats look like death traps but otherwise 2 thumbs up.

Definitely would be a great track *****, but its not my taste. I mainly don't like the little front window. Looks awkward. Not a bad price though.

Junk seats and no diagonals on rollbar mean not track legal. And I would love to bash my face on that A-pillar in an accident. I see no harnesses.

Puddle of water in the drivers seat shows his "waterproofing" technique is totally working.

That rollbar is worth more than the whole car.

So he saved like 30lbs maybe 50 from chopping it up, effectively ruining any daily driver capability of the car. And probably lost torsional rigidity in the process. $1500 aint a bad price, but it looks like a rusted tub of **** that is probably worth half that, IF that.

I've saw this car in person.

You hit the nail on the head ^^

It's just a rusty little turd bucket that someone decided to have a little fun with and chop up. Tastefully modded, lool...
