Surprisingly, I must agree. Anyone know what this one is hybridized with?

That almost looks like it was made out of a Messerschmidt car.
Edit: I guess it IS a Messerschmidt, I thought it was a homebuilt airplane until I realized it didn't have wings. It's been a long day.

Found this at the scrapyard, it was mounted on some kind of big 4x4 chassis, guessing it was a mud bogger of some sort.
Check out that trick all steel “one piece” hinged front end!

Some think that if your beetle has a padded dash, it's an engine donor. Some think that if it has push button door handles, it's a boat anchor.
