What the British call stock cars, like American sprint cars. I used to go see these on 1/4 and 1/2 mile dirt and tarmac ovals

I'm becoming obsesed with these things, I just love this trimed down 'stock' shell over a simple frame, honking great big Cy and massive exposed wheels look. It's an 8 year old boys dream. I just haven't grown up this week.

That's it, that's THE look. What basic body was this based on and do they make a fiberglass replica for the hot rod crowed these days?

It would be quite simple to make a FG mold off that body.
