A left side view of a crude, rusty dragster that looks like it was built in the early '50s appears to be sitting abandoned in the desert. Flattened, destroyed whitewall tires cling to steel wheels adorned with ancient hubcaps. A 4 cylinder engine and transmission that have been painted orange sit completely exposed in front of the white steering wheel. A tall crusty juts skyward at a Dutch angle, like a monument to poor engineering. At the front, a small fuel tank that looks like it is from a riding mower is "secured" with metal strapping from a long forgotten hardware store. An overheard rear 3/4 view of a crude, rusty dragster that looks like it was built in the early '50s appears to be sitting abandoned in the desert. Inside the "cockpit" made of rusted tubes hammered flat and gas welded together you can see the white steering wheel that has had the bottom half of the circle hacksawed off. The flimsy tin bomber seat is at the very back of the vehicle, and to drive it, one would have to straddle the rear axle, with their reproductive bits snuggled closely to the puny banjo style rear end of dubious origin and strength.
