"As you can imagine the car gets an incredible amount of attention. You can read a build story about the car with build pictures in the Conversions & Hybrids section of LS1tech.com"

Gets an incredible amount of attention, but how much of that is face palms or making fun of it?

I am really trying to figure out the point to this "conversion" and just can't see it. It seems to fail as an off road vehicle with a lack of front wheel drive and ground clearance issues, but also fails as a road car with no visible roof provisions and body panels that probably would not stay attached at anything above 55 mph.

Did you see the engine bay? I like it because the wiring is all hidden.
