More importantly, have the posts and pics describing this car been deleted?
If you know the story about this car please keep in in your hat. I was just hoping to refresh my memory about a special car. Regards, Carlos |

I believe I have a correct NOS left fender for the early cars. The shape is different at the seal to the cowl.
I would love to be part of the restoration of that car. There would have to be so many hand fabricated parts to make it right.

There would have to be so many hand fabricated parts to make it right. And that is the real challenge; one would have to be a real fabricator to restore the car correctly since basically all of the parts in it were early prototypes and not production panels or parts. With so much of the car rotting underneath, it would be difficult to determine what was original. |

If that can be restored, so could this prototype. Would love to know why it hasn’t been restored. |
