Like others, this car really isn't for me either, but IMO, bolt a set of 16" Kelseys on it and it would be accepted at a NSRA meet or a MAFCA meet with open arms.
You are probably right Brent, the people bidding on this car probably think it looks "cool" which it does but they would be disappointed when they try to drive it for the first time and can't stop grinding the gears.
