Chrome and Copper Steampunk W114

Check it out here: Chrome and Copper Steampunk W114

When looking at classic cars, most of the time we see people trying to restore them. That's cool and all, but sometimes taking an old car the custom route can be rewarding. At the very least it'll be original. Personally, I like it, but i can also understand a lot of people not digging it. What do you think?

Would I own this? ya, it's kind of cool, would I buy it? probably not, because I would question being able to sell it.
I like it. Post some more pictures. I like cars with patina.

Original is best 90% of the time with most cars but the cost of maintaining cars like this to original specification can out way there value so going on the custom route can a better way to go if your handy with your spanners and a welder.

Also the work involved in doing this takes alot of skill so credit where credits due it looks great .

Would own this just so I didnt have pay road tax as it's a 69'
