It was a birthday present.

You know, despite all the Bondo it's not a bad looking car; we could probably block sand it relatively smooth and slap a new coat of paint on it, maybe a wedge shaped two tone jobbie.
It would be quite a respectable hot rod. The super wide wheels and pipes are really pretty unique.
