Well yes....
carbon skin over rusty body
bonding carbon onto a rusty steel shell, it would creak and moan going down the road.... I think I would prefer a metal car in this caseThat being the whole point, surely?
They are displaying - rather creatively - carbon panels. What's not to get?

I don't suppose there is a pristine 'Hako' without any outer panels that could be used for exhibiting the panels. Surely nobody would attach these to a rotten car.
Yes I got the concept without the sarcasm but you bite every time.
What I've seen here is they don't mind rusty (seriously bad structure) classic cars driven around.
Although in that case, he gets some props for having an LY crossflow-headed L-gata. A rarer sight than an S20.

Ah, I remember seeing something about that previously (probably via you Alan!). Very Rocky Auto to do something like that..It's actually a single cam RB head converted to look like an LY.

That sounds familiar - I'm sure there is previous discussion on the forum. That kind of creativity appeals to me - finding new ways to experiment while keeping the L-gata base in there. E.g. the Datsunworks twin-cam Honda-derived head, JMC Base all new L-series head, etc.There were a couple of different people making castings and conversion parts for the RB20E/RB30E single cam LY-lookalike heads to L-gata bottom end hybrids. I think we have discussed them here before? Nothing directly to do with Rocky Auto.
Here's one I photographed at the All Fairlady Z Meeting at Fuji back in 2018:
