Looks like a modified Corvette, to me.

BTW, All ... interesting car in your avatar....

Happily, it's not quite as painful in black and white.

Looks to be a C2 'Vette, made up to mimic a C3 or Mako Shark.

"shark" is indeed part of the name.

What about the US-racing- and custom car pros like metalshapes, Otto Puzzle etc.?

Post by: Otto Puzzell on October 19, 2009, 02:40:29 PM
I've searched and searched. I've found lots of Corvette-based model kits made by this manufacturer, even some with shark names. But not this one.

Not yet, anyway.

Well, that model is a Turbo Shark.
Advanced Design Sensation is the missing part?
Designed by Carl Casper in 1969.

And that's the name of the car — simple as that!
