We featured this car in our coverage of June 8th Irvine Cars and Coffee. It’s not at all surprising to see something parked prominently at that event for sale within weeks. What’s funny here is that we’re still not sure what it is.
There’s mention of a Fiat title and Honda power (from what?). There is a claim that the ‘frame’ has been customized, but what was it to begin with? Regardless, it’s certainly interesting, but how do you put a value on someone’s homemade project with so little background?

We remember these bubbles from seeing the car in person. The seller does point them out in the text. From a distance and in person, they almost looked like dents/hail damage. This picture does them more justice.
