I had to google bmw 700 the first I saw the rat rod because its so...I guess because the modded car is so outrageous

With an actual suspension, a 700 actually corners well enough to have once been BMW's most winning race car. When you slam one like that, you just have to glide, carefully. Pretty sad, actually.

The outer shell is the only part remaining of the original car. Sits on a VW modified chassis. Tons of fab work.
