This is a special, based on 1950 Crosley frame and running gear, with bodywork in steel. A shortened 1940 Ford hood and grille are used. It was built more recently than might be supposed from its appearance.

Correct so far.
But it does have a name which is required for the point.
Locked for you to see if you can come up with it!

I have found a better internet reference for the car, in which the owners/builders refer to it as their "hot rod". Sound about right?

Pepa, for PEte and PAula? Can't find very much about this car, may as well guess.

OK, you've got their names.
I had it just as the PetePaula Crosley Hot Rod so you get the point!
