That's because there's a bumper sticker on the back that says beware of ejecting parts, with the subscript of the car.
I'm surprised that the headlight rings haven't blown off already or that hardtop...

As a sidebar the picture below is of a guy who just bought a TigerIMG_20200619_070755_01.jpg so there's hope for whoever buys this car.

I hope that's a replica.

Otherwise, what a waste of a early 100-4/6 big Healey!

I don't know he just sent me the picture, when he thanked me for referring him to the car for sale. Clearly I'd rather have a Farrah fawcett poster:)

Sorry, that's an Austin Healey
I have some really good friends in the Austin-Healey Club, there's only one guy I can't keep up with mostly because I'm a wuss. He's got a Chevy 350 crammed in one and is an X F1 driver. My comment was that he has good taste in fine British automobiles even ones that have been ruined with Detroit iron.

‘54 Chevy tail lights? I’ll bet that is a scary ride.

Mike,

I think you're right about the tail lights. Probably an understatement about the "scary ride". It looks like the body may have been dropped on an old DJ5 postal Jeep frame. At least that's the only place I remember seeing front wheel hubs with that appearance. Maybe you recall the study which showed the CJ's cornering instability in the early 80's? The postal DJ's were even worse.
