Make sense now, Paul? ;)

I suspect metalshapes' knowledge of hot rods and customs to be as highly developed as 75america's knowledge of Italian coachbuilders.

looks very similar to Les Dunham's Ford based Scorpion from the early 60's,

he also built the Corvorado from the film "Live & Let Die"

Actually I would say it looks more than very similar, because that is exactly what it is!
Well done.
