That is more or less how British home-brewed customs looked in the 70's, whether by accident or design on the part of the owner I don't know, but I suspect it's accidental however! Just imagine it with a chain-link steering wheel and some faux-fur inside, and maybe some diffraction tape if anyone still sells it.....awesome!
