I believe Rod Powell and Harry Bradley built a tribute/clone in the early nineties,great looking car

 

The gold Rod Powell tribute car was in Denver about 10 years ago.
I,m not sure if it is still here

 

I don't find that car very attractive and the clone is even worse.

 

Wow, $3600 for the work at Barris's shop. That was some serious coin back then. I have to agree though, it's not exactly on my top list of Barris cars.

 

I agree that's not the best of Barris. OTOH, 41 Fords are so ugly that I always imagined that when the assembly line workers first saw them, they all went home and told their wives to forget about overtime for a couple of years.

 

Notice I didn't use the words "Attractive" or "Beautiful" describing the car... ;-)

 

That would be a killer cruiser here in the Socal summer

Weiner dogs !

 

Yes, I also thought this car had been built, as a tribute, in candy green. I was in the '90's and I thought some magazine covered the build

 

Unique

 

That car ain't that bad looking have you all seen other Barris cars? Or better yet the crap george was handing trophies to? Anyways Carry jive bomber dude

 

A lot of great metal work, no doubt, but I think it was a poor design. Seems like everything is out of proportion.
