Quite simply it's someone's idea of a car they really wanted, and built it. just as if you took an original Volvo 240 and dropped in a 5.0 Mustang motor. The Volvo-file would think you're a butcher. The owner would think he's got quite the sleeper on his hands. Choices, opinions, likes, dislikes..that's why we all don't drive the sme car in the same color
Maybe the cowl was rusty and when they opened the doors they got stuck that way?
"...factory rebuilt...?"
Kids today... hrmph..
If you'll excuse me, I now have to go stab myself in the eyes with a sharp stick...
looks like a good cruiser to me- and the doors make getting into and out of the car really easy in crowded parking lots.

5 liter Volvo I understand, and want. Lambo door Packard?
Except for the doors thats the start of a cool street rod. And cheap too. Needs 49 Plymouth bumpers.
Photographic proof that there is an ass for every chair. I've seen worse.
Somewhere, Doc Brown is crying, contemplating going back in time and stopping this.
At least it doesn't show when the door is closed.

Suddenly, he doesn't want it anymore.
it'll probably buff out.. 
Wonder how hard that would be to correct.
Oy, why go to all that trouble and leave everything else stock?
oddly, I would drive that
In reply to neon4891: So would I, but I would climb through the windows before I let anyone see those retarded doors.
