    I've been following this car for years and every time it's changed it becomes my new favorite.  This car hasn't just been an expression of art it's been a tool for him to learn new "old" skills like chopping, channeling, metal forming by hand, etc.  These are all technique you don't see on modern builds that he has sought out strictly for his own knowledge.  The previous seats were hand made and gorgeous.

    I admire this guys dedication to the craft and to a project.  From following this car and previous builds I know he drives these cars.  I can't imagine this would be entered in any kind of race series but I wouldn't be surprised to see it out at some track days.

          I like pretty much everything about the newest iteration... Except I'm really struggling with still referring to this as "the same car" he brought back to life.

          Since when is reusing part of an old roof-line on a burnt out car make it "the same car"?!?

          Its a full tube chassis car you happened to utilize your old roof for. Paint the damn thing 1 color and enjoy it...

                I question the safety/comfort of having metal racing seats :D

                  i love the widebody look, and the s38 is god's motor.  too much attention whoring for me to like it, though.

                    Good way to put it. Not crazy about rusty myself but respect the build. The copy cats (especially on clean cars) are what get me though 😕

                      I love almost everything about it, I just don't get the massive size difference between the front and rear wheels...

                                That e28 looks awesome but I cant get into the e46/e60 fender vents. I feel like they make the cars look cheap IMO.

                                  It would have made sense if they'd just used e9 fender vents.

                                          Yea it says in the stancy pants article that it isn't quite complete. But nonetheless, with what I have seen so far, I WOULD LOVE TO DRIVE IT.
