    I'm not sure... I can sat that the car was one of my favorite fresh customs at the event. The chop is brilliant... Proportions are perfect.

    I was told that they plan to show it on the ground from now on, but they just wanted to do it this way for this one show to make sure that everyone knew/saw the amount of detail put into it.
    It's great to see an early style custom built to that level.
    Amazing car. Tons of detail and still easy on the eyes.

    Here's one of my pics...
