odd indeed, everything is probably exposed so that it can be oiled, probably no oil pan or pump, just squirt oil on everything before starting

Come on you guys, don't you recognize that? That was General Sherman's street rod when he was a teenager living in San Diego. It was stolen and never recovered until now!.
