You guys know me, right? This has peaked my interest every sense the 1st time I saw it! I think it just hit the top of my "Build It" bucket list! Might not be exactly like it, but close in a number of ways:

Should I go for it? -KK

Yep, go for it,,, time to pick up a 51/52 Chev and a C1 Corvette, then let the slicing and dicing begin! Have Fun with this one, looks like it might just keep you scratching your head all the way through.

.... I bet it's killer in person.

If it is real. These days just lately, it's astounding to see what's being generated by A.I. mashing together imagery, for example the V356Dub below from whatever the "Playground" website is. The giveaway here with the Vettbelair might just be what's happening with the shape of the bumper, where it looks like a computer had trouble mashing that shape.

More I look at it, the more I think it's CG. Good CG, but CG.

The headlight lenses in particular aren't quite right...

Either way it's a pretty cool thing.

Agreed - that razor-thin A pillar makes me think it’s not real, the wiper arm that has no wiper, the weird shape of the top of the front bumper and a bunch of other little things.

Still cool tho!

Looking at that thing, I can't help but see some Karmaan Ghia in the roof and trunk area. Maybe my eyes are biased though. image.png.30ee5f4074253edcae64ac25c5d32959.png

LOL.  Think my joke failed to land.

It was either that one or channel my best Von Zipper and suggest you try the Front Custom Bumper & Front Roll Pan store.

Okay! Enough of the 'hijack the thread with lame humor,' Danno!
