Now there's a rat rod. Probably like 10 liters of displacement for bonus points. Here's a car that would appeal to both vintage curmudgeons and millennial stance dorks.
And..... with what appears to only have rear brakes... When men were men... And something something something about melting a modern MINI Cooper????
You can tell they are real men as they have several degrees of positive camber on the front wheels.....

Not just a single headlight but a recessed single headlight. I'm guessin' it's nones to illuminating which is really ok since it doesn't have front brakes. For over hundred years old it really is a neat piece of automotive history.
But back then everyone knew that fitting brakes to the front wheels would just cause the car to spin as soon as the brakes were used. It's just so much safer to brake only the back wheels which pull the car straight. And this they knew as an absolute fact, not just an opinion. It's a good example of how anything that starts with "Everyone knows..." is usually bunkum, and that's a polite word for it....
