I did find the car,its rather weird. the seller claims it was built by the inventor of the barcode,it mentions that its 1949,the instrument panel was of an aircraft style, and the speed was read in knots instead of mph.its price was reasonable, it sure was a total kooknik crosley for sure, even the pipes would exit from the rear-fins.wow,alot of tail-lights.

Yes, that's right, thought it doesn't mention the guy's name.
Here's a picture of those rear lights (and a front view)!:
