My good good lord. Words fail me at this utter abomination.

What possesses anybody to do such a thing?

[bxlbaz]

I love the “all offers gratefully received” but in advert 😆

[Getragdogleg]

The more you look the worse it gets.

[blueg33]

WTF

Wish I hadn't looked, that will haunt me forever.

[Johnspex]

A fan of Wacky Races I imagine.

I quite like the steam punkyness of it.

I'm not saying I'd ever buy it/drive it/be seen in it but, well if you're the sort of person who wants attention in a field full of identical 911s and fake fast Escorts this would be the one people stopped in front of (for better or worse).

Was Sean Connery near by?



(This is an obscure movie reference, I haven't seen the film)

[Pericoloso]

Only 60 K.

The rear is just as weird.

Hilarious !

[RDMcG]

Looks like an old American steam locomotive. Nasty.

[anonymous-user]

Ha! I saw this on C&C too and thought "someone on PH will have posted this" and low and behold..

You know those people that stick lots of Halfords chrome tat over their small SUVs? Even they would be embarrassed by this.

North America circa mid 1950's, was probably done when almost new, or when new.

Its very much of a time, and needs to be looked at through era and demographic specific glasses not through modern eyes.

I've seen worse from that era, although not inflicted on a Rolls

[Riley Blue]

Mmmmm... that's a bit 'speshul'.

The front grille that has been used on the back is most certainly not mid 50s by any stretch, its more 1970s Cadillac in my opinion, certainly that era.

I suggest an early to mid 70s conversion.

Do you have a unique setting for this ultra unique car?

No

[PositronicRay]

It does look a bit fiddly to keep clean.

[Richard-390a0]

That's so wrong it's right I'd love to roll up to some classic car meet in that & see all the purists frothing at the mouth lol.

Aah, yes, I hadn't clicked on the ad link to see the rear photo, and yes, you're right, looks like an early 70's Caddy grille, so as you say, likely early-mid 70's Pimpmobile/Super Fly era job, although strange that they've left the interior stock, as that style always featured a similar over the top fur and draylon abomination

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. His last film too.

[crossle]

I'd love to turn up at work in that thing...
