I have two questions:
What is it for?
Why are the headlamps so high?

My dream car of all time (a real one that is) what a great conversation piece to put in the lounge. Something would have to be done about those headlights though.
I wonder if it runs on Linseed Oil or Creosote?

A conversation piece?
"I've got a wooden car."
"Wooden...?"
"It's made of teak."
"You don't say..."
"It cost over £6,400."
"Really, what does it do?"
"Not a lot, it's made of wood."
"Hmmm..." |

That would go against the grain.

At a current bid of 10k, I think he is barking up the wrong tree.
Does the owner keep a log and what is in the trunk ? |
