Would you ever drive it?

Came across this on CL the other day. Apparently the guy who customized it passed away and that was the reason for sale. 1990 with around 90,000 on it. What are your thoughts?

I was so getting ready to call you out for typing "wood" instead of "would".

HECK NO I wouldn't drive it!

I knew that title would catch some attention.

I'm not sure why the builder decided to have so many duplicate badges in the same area?

As gaudy as it seems to most, I have to give it to the builder...He loved his Chevrolet!! Gotta give him that! I just can't see wood under the hood being too safe...

I think the louvers make the wood in the engine bay safe for street/strip use.
