That's pretty cool. Not sure if the wife would think the same, but could only buy/try, and find out.

I didn't think it would be so momentous. Just can't stop listening to that album.....or any Leatherface actually.
Frankie Stubbs is an amazing songwriter.
Anything Aero, gives me a chubby.

1940 Ralph Schenck Streamliner Ralph Schenck built this unpainted streamliner's chassis and frame in 1939, while Joaquin Grosso fabricated its lightweight aluminum body panels. The engine consisted of a 183-cubic-inch Chevrolet block, Oldsmobile head, Ford crankshaft rods, and Winfield cam. On May 19, 1940, the car achieved a top speed of 118 mph at Harper Dry Lake. The bare body sustained damage after years of successful competition and was eventually discarded, while the chassis and engine were sold off in 1945, only to be reunited in this restoration.

I'd rock that!
Sadly I would probably be rocking it by myself, SWMBO wouldn't go near it, and would keep my son away too.
OH GAWD. Datsun-induced pant-tightness.
This one is $800, about 3 hours away. I would need to buy an abandoned barn somewhere to hide it from SWMBO until I get my other projects finished.
