    Needs a drip rail IMO. Sides look too sharp or something. Hate the sides. Love the front & rear as well as stance. My worthless .02

    This car was bought "unfinished" years ago by Barry Weiss who also had the Kings of Mercs (before he also painted flat black over the purple when it got wrecked and he sold it). He is quite a character and drives the car like he stole it more often than not. He used to call and talk with my mom and she'd just hang up laughin & shakin' her head because he claimed he had my dads creations to thank and for baggin' so many chicks :) He says they just don't look at him the same when he's in his Jag! Ha.

    Radical is right...De Rosa built customs usually fit that bill.

    yea what he said.
    the fact the the shapes dont even match from before and after makes me think about an inch or so of bondo around the headlights. hopefully it was lead , but still.

    At least ton... more like two.

    I saw the "Shark" when it was in dallas at a shop and the hood itself must have been 200 lbs. It was rediculous. It was cracking everywhere from what was probably inches of bondo.You literally had to have two people open the hood.

    Again, as stated by Frank's daughter, "the car was purchased unfinished
    by the now owner" No one but Frank probably knows how thick, or not ,the filler was.
    Construction photos don't always tell all the story of a build.
