Never been much of a roadster guy and the chopped and channeled hot rods from the 40's and 50's are bit before my time. I found this one that I like.

OMG! So fugly it's cute

Those old Citroen bombs are kinda cool, but they are a mechanics nightmare. No parts available, a complicated air suspension and even the steel rims that had a 1" hole in the center making a tire swap in 99% of North American shops a pain in the ass. Rims wouldn't fit on any tire changing machine and you had to break the bead off the rim by hand with a BFH and then pry the fucking wheel off using two flat bars like the old days before hydraulics

That extra long wheelbase did provide a nice cushy ride............................. if you could get it started.

Ahhh, so you know! lol...I've always been tempted by the challenge. I'd probably buy a crappy one and throw a smallblock in it.
