Very creative detailing on an iconic Hot Rod. It make me smile too.

Close enough for me, man! At some point I tried to modify an Ala Kart nose to look more like the Silver Sapphire and it just didn't work for me. Your version looks convincing, well done. I find it interesting how much the rocker "diffusers" remind me of today's race and drift-inspired custom car concepts...wings and splitters and diffusers everywhere, for dramatic effect. The builders of this car were way ahead of the game, haha.

Barris takes credit BUT aside from the top chop the car was originally built and up dated (almost 11 times) by the Alexander Brothers.
