    Has anyone seen this car?

     



    I found these pictures over on Carnut.com. This may be the most beautiful car I have ever seen. I would love to see it up close, in person. Anyone have any idea where it is or who has it?

    thanks

    Of course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong!

    The exterior certainly is well done!!!! Some gorgeous styling and mix/match on manufacturer's!!!! Looks like someone is back to good old fashioned Hot Rodding and getting away from the cookie cutters!!!!

    OK, I found a few more pictures, it was at Good Guys in KC in 06 and at the Stray Kat 500 in Dewey OK in May 05. So that narrows it down some. I may send an email to the Good Guys folks and see if they can give me a name and location.

    Do my eyes deceive me or has the builder added a hump in the front center of the hood? Man is there a lot of work in that car!!!!!

    Thanks Bill! Yes there is a lot of work That hood lump may be original. This is what a stock 1954 Studebaker Conestoga Wagon looks like. I am wondering what the roof came from. Maybe a sectioned/narrowed GM wagon
