who says open wheel and ifs dosent look good? I find it refreshing when someone does something that the main group dosent like. If it wasnt for people who did that there would be no rat rods. Im not saying its beautiful, but different is good sometimes just because its different.

Shoulda chose my words better. To say what I mean: IFS is not as clean looking as a straight axle on a fenderless. Stock placement is unbalanced with the motor and radiator too far forward. Stock A-arms are, in general, not pretty. Tubes aren't bad. A manual rack and pinion helps clean things up. Stock frame horns do not look clean. Stock spring and shock placement look cluttered also.

Can an open wheel IFS be done to look good? Definetly! Have I seen that looks good yet? No. Although there are several I've seen (including on here) that are OK looking. The process just hasn't been fully figured out yet - it will be eventually.

Hope I don't sound like I'm trying to pick a fight - usually I'm the guy defending the open wheel IFS idea from B.E.D. and others.

I still stand by my first opinion though - that thing has some major style problems.

In 1974 that was quite stylish. (you had to have been there). Custom Vans were all the rage, panel painting, C-cabs, Elton John, David Bowie, Cheech and Chong, paisly shirts, liesure suits, bell bottom pants, polyester cloths, disco music, all kinds of stuff to make you gag.

In a retrospective analysis I can appreciate the sentiment.

looks like a hippy car from the 60-early 70s.
