The old saying is that there are 50,000 surfers in the world, and 500,000 that dress like them.
There are far more "California cars" than ever were originally shipped or sold in California. It's nearly a worthless statement that only should have one paying extra careful attention.
There are a lot of unrestorable cars destined for the crusher. Looks like this was once crushed, and dumped in the ocean (Pacific; it is a California Car) to use as a reef before someone's fishing line discovered it and brought it up.
This is clearly in the "you've got to be kidding" category.
