I guess if it drives, passes inspections, all lights work, etc.. then it is legally "driveable". Don't think I would want to be seen in that unless I just got out from winning a destruction derby, but beautyt is in the eye of the beholder right

In Indiana, a car that crappy would be completely street legal! May not pass inspection elsewhere in other states, but we ain't got no inspection.

lol, funny pics! I'd bet that it's in England. I see European style traffic signs and all the writing is in English. Car is a right-hand drive model, as someone else noted earlier.So what's wrong with it? Need to do a little bodywork to it? No problem. Just use duct tape.

True, but I'd rule out Japan. I don't think it's very likely that they have all their highway advertisements written in English.
