Looks like a one-off based on a Speedster splash. Never seen anything like that advertised in any of my catalogs.

Yeah...never seen anything like that.

Those rear wheel arches are pretty big. I would think it would be hard to fill them correctly.

There would have to be a whole lot of reinforcing going on there. There doesn't look to be any kind of structure under the shell. Be perfect for a tube frame; it down, low windshield.. turn it into a Salt Flat style racer.

It would make really cool dag car skin for a tube chassis.

Everyone is gifted. Some just do not open the package.

Looks like it was painted with a live chicken,polished with a brick and buffed with a pine cone

Looks like a clone of bits of a a Porsche/Glockler Spyder...

- maybe some bits of the Porsche 718 RS 60/61 Spyder -

... most likely was built by someone with a roll of fiberglass, some resin, and a tub of Bondo.
