The restoration caught the eye of car culture photographer Larry Chen. He took these dope photos and promised a special episode about these wheels on The Hoonigans YouTube channel.

With $800 USD, Bryce slapped on a roof rack, added some lights, dropped a raspberry bomb in the interior, cut the fenders to fit the tires, and transformed a wrecked Mercedes into a rally warrior. By his words, it proves you can build a rally car for less than $1,000 USD and that you definitely don't need money to have fun.
