Some people should not be allowed access to motor cars!

I didn't know there were rednecks in the UK. I would have bet money that was from some rural area in the States

I would have expected that this was done in Kentucky, not the UK.

Yeah - there are no 4X4s in Texas........... Looks more like downtown L.A.to me. Or Live Oak - wherever the heck that is.

It couldn't have come from rural America, there's no gun rack in the rear window and Steer horns on the bonnet

I'm all for artistic creation when a car is otherwise destined for salvage. Its still on the road (mostly), and not just recycled into yet another Kia.

That's what would come from the Queer's and Steers state, and that would be Texas. Kentuckians have not evolved, that far yet. :D

We dont have a monopoly on red neckism. The original rednecks- Scots, Irish, English exported rednecks worldwide.

Thats the third one I'v seen of these B / Range Rover hybrids, Brown & Gammons did a GT and John Hill of John Hills MG spares did a Roadster back in the late 80's

pretty mild as far as 4x4 lift conversions go, there was a 65 1/2- 66 convertible mustang down the road had big mudbogger tires was about 4 feet off the ground to the floor boards.. i never stopped to look at the engine drive train , would have been easy to inspect , just walk under.

Truth in advertising: He calls it a "former beauty". The Sebring flares are a nice touch. ;)


The price isn't all that bad. Somebody could buy it, fix up the drive train and suspension and have a nice RB car.

As to it being a bit of fun, at least it is done well...not a hack job. It's a toy, and I think that would be neat to see crusing down a logging road when I'm out flyfishing in backroads of BC, or given that it's in the UK, near a loc in Scotland. And, if the body is not shot, it could be a decent cheap starting point for a V8 conversion - all the running gear for a B is cheap once you have the engine and the body is already set for wider tires.

I found this "thing" around the corner from my house and stopped and asked the owner if I could take a couple of pics. Ugliest car I've ever seen...
