Hmm, Ford mechanicals. I bet it has a ford transmission too.... that's probably why the chassis is raised up.
That thing is absolutely hideous.
The front end's been smashed before, or he took it apart and has no idea how to put it together right. Look at the alignment of the driver's headlight...

That's a Ford brake booster and reservior. Or it's American at least. Look at it closely, no way is that German.

This is what makes us doing the conversions look really bad. Im sorry everyone had to see that. Notice the overspray on the hoses?

Looks like Cletus the slackjawed yokel got himself a Porshhh.

All he needs to top off that auction is a sound byte of some dueling banjos!

But look at the bright side, at least he didn't ruin a good one doing the conversion, that one was probably ready to be parted out when he started (and the mechanicals evidently have been parted out)! Also, at least he went with something better than a chevy drivetrain.
