I know this is part of the car hobby, and is sometimes a necessary evil to keep others alive. I can’t help but feel bad knowing this one will never see the road again. I wish I had the skills and funds to save them all. I love these cars, all of them. A lot of us on this site and other sites; cars, trucks, motorbikes, etc, they speak to us, they speak to our souls.....change our mindsets and even are moods just seeing them, much less driving them. RIP friend....

Is the ratchet strap keeping the back end from dragging on the ground?

No, but it is a weak car, both longs are in sad shape. Even with 30 lbs of fiberglass the previous owner thought would be good enough to hold it together. I learned the ratchet strap thing from a guy that had one bend in half while on his lift. I try to be safe while working on cars., especially when they are extra crusty.
