Crazy 10.5 Outlaw Caddy XLR being built

Not really my cup of tea, but pretty cool. A couple of questions though, whats with the huge "dump truck" front framerails, and why would they choose a upper and lower control arm front end, rather than a strut?

I built 2 1/2" headers for a local guy with a 632" nitrous 80 Corvette that had stock "bridge girder" front frame joined to .083" wall moly rear. Rules, like Chad says.
