well I'm getting absolutely nowhere with "1950's rare fiberglass body roadster convertibles" or "blue 50's fiberglass roadster with split winfshield"

is this a one-of prototype?

Buddahaid · 09-17-21, 09:59 AM

No but only seven were made and two or three still exist.

Aktungbby · 09-17-21, 10:23 AM

did it have a Chevy 283 short block with Edelbrcck carburator?

Buddahaid · 09-17-21, 10:56 AM

No but used GM based chassis and running gear.

Glasspar? edit No can't be it

Buddahaid · 09-17-21, 01:42 PM

Not a Glasspar but the guy who restored this car has also restored a Glasspar.

Catfish · 09-17-21, 03:01 PM

Not a Victress S1a i'm running out of options

Buddahaid · 09-17-21, 03:08 PM

Clue time then. The image is from a video of a car show that happened recently but images of the car are to be found online.

The chassis and running gear are from a Cadillac Eldorado.

Catfish · 09-17-21, 03:08 PM

And not the Maverick Sportster, since that's a boattail. God. Had no idea of all those types

They built some pretty stuff

Catfish · 09-17-21, 03:14 PM

"Kurtis Omohundro Comet" but before the 50ies. Unbelievable

Why aren't they building such cars today.

Buddahaid · 09-17-21, 03:19 PM

Well it is but I thought that reference was for the Auburn so I'm sorry if that was a point of confusion. Over to you.

Catfish · 09-17-21, 03:48 PM

^ .. on the photo(s) i saw of this car, the lower side ends of the split windscreen looked somehow different

I would have sworn it was an Auburn, at first

Catfish · 09-17-21, 03:55 PM

What's that ?

U misled on the decade; it was an aluminum body not fiberglass; and it was built on a Ford frame with a (Ford)Mercury engine...not GM...throw in Jimbunas no cows in households fib

it's a plot!

I viewed the Kurtis Omohundro Comet but disregarded it base on forties decade, not fiberglass and not GM...I cry FOUL!
