I don't think a single person mentioned that the car would have been better with an LS motor.

Would it have been "better" with an LS engine? Yeah, probably. But then it would have just been an ugly pile of crap with a good engine. ;)

I like it even with the chop. that guy found true freedom with his project. And I say that because I would never have the guts to do that to any of my cars, although I could probably find it in me to do it to a bmw. I would say that this "rat rod" has gone the wrong direction. it should start ****ty if it is destined to look like that. And it's all up to interpretaion, but if I was to define rat rod, it would be a car with the most preformance for the least possible cost. the way the car looks should be a direct result of that.
