I don't necessarily pick them because I like them. I pick them because they're different. I could find you dozens of restomods built exactly as they came out of the factory, but we've all seen them, all know them, so what's the point. So it's all about seeing something we don't usually see, even if we don't like it.
There's some nice bits to it, some nice fabrication, etc. Accept it for that and you'll be happier

It's my own fault for clicking on it :(

These threads rarely make me happier than before I opened them :D
If I was that blokes dad I'd slap him for making such silly shite.

I'm happy, just not a fan of the "looks like it was made in a shed in the 1960s" look, my comment was meant to be humorous

Keep 'em coming... appreciating the effort very much.

I hate most of them but that's not the point - I like seeing what people are doing!
