Wow Heo - That is super cool!  Yeah those are some impressive studs on the tires.

Back in the day, people did things with "expensive" cars that we would think is crazy.  Duesenbergs and Packards were cut up to make hot rods, or even tow trucks.

That didn't make my morning as much as a big hat, but thanks for sharing  ;D ;D
