Okay it has been confirmed that this bat belongs to an amazing builder who has worked for guys like Gene Windfield and Jay Ohrberg.  I saw this car unfinished this past January and it was awesome in person.  I can only imagine it is even better now that it is finished.  Think of it as a home build by a truly professional builder.  Although not 100% screen accurate it is without a doubt the best build I have ever seen.  He used a 5ton leveling table to get everything within a hair of being perfect.  The fit and finish were flawless.  He said it drives great too.  There should be some more pix posted soon.

A few new pictures.

I love the Convo-Pros.  I almost went with them.  Now seeing them on the car I really wish I had. 

More pictures soon....

Ooohhh - ahhhh.... that 3/4 view is awesome. Are the speaker doors chromed out? How about the circle window behind the canopy? It's reflecting in every pic I've seen. This is definitely going to be a sweet car to drool over - especially if you keep posting more pics
