Quite possible, but that one is exceptionally well done, most added windows on those coachbuilt tourist buses stick up above the metal, those are inset like VW did it.

What is the deal with the right front tire? Looks like they tied a blanket around the rim to finish the race. |

That is the left rear tire behind it. They line up at that angle.

Not sure how "Vintage" this picture is, but I would think so w/the amount of dust on it.
