Who made the body?

Rod Body from AUS. no wood in the car at all.
Side inpact stuff and steel in doors to tons of steel all over this body.
Has working cowl and stock hinges that i like

who made that Air cleaner? I remember seeing 1 on Ebay it is a factory 4bbl air cleaner for a '50's car but can't remember who used them. I know it is a GM company. Buick?

Cad and Buick i think

Definitely Cadillac. Maybe Buick. There are repros out there, but they're pretty proud of them.

BTW, isn't that the same body Boyd used in one of his '32 buildups?

No its not the same.
This one is made by Rod bods or rods by Elivs here a link
