    It definitely got more wild than the gold versions. It was rear ended, then rebuilt with an asymetrical rear gl*** that I can best describe as a cross between a '63 Corvette and a 70's boat tail Riviera.

    I actually like the earliest version of the car, before it became "mildly wild", chopped, but still with the stock headlights, grill, bumper.

    Here's an odd one. And right away, I apologize for the weak attempt at disguising the O/T wheels. A custom should not have billet aluminum wheels.

    A friend asked if anyone knew what it was. I could see the obvious '58 Pontiac tail lights. Then realized that the head lights were also '58 Pontiac. Beyond that, I was lost. I leaned toward sectioned, and shortened shoebox Ford convertible. Then I thought the p***enger quarter panel looked a little bit like a '52-54 Ford/Mercury.

    Nope, thats just a reflection of the parking lot stripe in the paint. It's pretty much 'slab-sided.

    There was one clue included in the email. The horn ****on said "Kings Kustom Kraft".

    A little bit of searching and thinking before I had it figured out. Anybody wanna take a guess?

    Looks like a customized Muntz Jet. 58 Pontiac tail lights.

    The hood and trunk gaps make my Plymouth look tidy.

    Yep, of course you guys got it!! I'm guessing the quarter panel and front fenders tops from the '58 were also used.
