Bob Johnson, the original owner of the car, is a car guy through and through. He is not, however, a mopar guy. He has no brand loyalty nor marque specific dedication. He delights in tilting perceptions, which includes tweaking peoples perceptions of restorations and performance.
While there are aspects of the build I wouldn't have done if it were mine, overall there are a lot of really neat things about it. You may not like the car, you may not like the guy, but no one can deny that it took a lot of time, effort, and money to create such a unique vehicle.
