What is that modified from? Looks like a scratch build. Mad as a box of frogs but it has a strange appeal biggrin

I cannot fathom how anyone can think it looks good like that. I know it is good that humans are all different but some are really different.

Back to this one again. Badly modified as in it’s done badly so it’s poor quality or badly as in taste wise.

I don't think it came out of the Mercedes factory looking like that, so fairly sure it counts as modified one way or another.

Yes to all the above and it’s certainly made me chuckle, however can anybody shed any light on what it actually is. It looks like someone has tried to copy an Ultima that’s was described to them by Stevie Wonder

Quite a beast as well, low volume handmade cars from Leicestershire with a huge V8 in the back. The green thing kind of looks like it if you squint

Looking at the overall proportions and the flat windscreen, it's probably a modified dune buggy/sand rail chassis. It looks somewhat similar to a UVA Can-Am, but that was a British kit car and this one is obviously American.
