    Jack Walker did that one years ago.

    There are a bunch of Matranga Merc clones

    Kopper Kart was just done and was shown at last years Detroit Autorama.

    John Ballard did a clone of the Valley Custom Polynesian years ago.

    And on and on and on.

    Jerry,
    I think I located a 48 Cad whole car that is being parted out. Grill still in it. Was there a difference in 48 to 49 caps? I will take pictures monday. You know where I'm talking about.
