I got a message from Dan Bowden that they had the Moffat Mustang out there today for some laps....

So what is it ?.

A restomod 1949/1950 Ford, known for the ornament in the grille as a "single spinner".

The following model in 1951/52 had two spinners in the grille, so was known as a "twin spinner"

It looks as though the front and rear clip of the 1949/1950 Ford Spinner has been grafted onto a Toyota/Japanese vehicle...

Cheers,

Trans-Am:cool:

It is a modern car shell with single spinner skins grafted on. Check the roofline and the C Pillar-Not that era at all.
cheers, Ron B

Thought about this image a bit but just can't say I really like it much.
It loses it's classic look with that turret, all squarish, up on top!
Would much prefer the original shape like Oppy's here in Melbourne............now that's a beautiful car!

It is the Late roof grafted on, not the other way around, I would think.
