Lots of stuff on and around the dash. I think it’s overpriced.
No use scrutinizing over rigs like this because they clearly intended to go in a certain direction. I do like the patina and how the added f head doesn’t stick through the hood…
I’m with you on the patina and keeping the F-head from justifying the dreaded hood hole/bump. In fact that crossover tube looks like a cool bit of fabrication. Adding the M-16 rifle holder (ala M151A2) and a boat-like cup holder are some nice personal touches… maybe not helping him get $12K, but this is an nice militarized pair… probably good for parades and certainly looks fun.
What with the 3 surveillance camera looking gizmos? Are the two on the windshield the wiper motors?
