How is this manufactured? Out of a sedan or convertible?

I hope they used a sedan!!! Why cut up a convertible to create another?
Hebmuller didn't do that either in the past!

There is no difference between a sedan and a vert pan. The only difference is the vert pan does not have the jack points mounted to the pan.

Must be. Doesn't appear to be sitting on any sort of pan at all, convertible or otherwise.

Nice body that is almost correct in each way according to the picts.
I wish I could see more details from inside and that it was sitting in my garage  .
The parts from a real Heb or newly pressed parts are obviously welded on an Oval area body.
The mentioned missing issue on the engine lid is not clear to me, Heb 623 ...Maybe it is because I have looked at to many picts of hebmullers the last 15 years or so...?
With an split area dash and rear quarter pannels...It whould foul everybody, even me . On the other hand... Thinking of a real Oval dash Hebmuller is a never solved issue, or is it?
Greetings. Peter

You and I know that the rails aren't part of the pan. I was only trying to educate the young lad..

I think the guy said that's the deal they made with the Hebmuller family. They would number them, starting where the old Hebs ended, and make them with the oval dash.. So basically continue the production as where Hebmuller left it????
That's just what I heard..

So you can rock a fake Heb for $90K? Amazing that you can get a really NICE replica 356 for $50k max - and much more fun to drive.
