It's a wild one for sure. Originally customized way back in the mid '60s (it's a '64), it was first raced as a Pike's Peak race car. In 1971 it was given this wild paint job and then lived its life as a show car. This rendering gave me a real workout for sure!

Check out the crazy side pipes it had back in the '60s! eek This was back when it was still in the original color—Ermine White.

The colors instantly reminded me of this '66 I've seen a couple of times.

Thank you! Believe it or not, I learned some new tricks in Adobe Illustrator while producing this rendering. I have far more hours in this thing than I can count, or get paid for! laugh2
