Anyone know this car?
I saw this on Ebay and since it's from Dayton, I thought someone here might have a story or remember it .

Re: Anyone know this car?
Its been many years since I have seen it,I always seen it at the Carl casper show and I always thought it was built as a non runner since I never seen it move on its own power or on the street. I knew the owner as he sold parts not too far from the house and I am suprised he does not own it still. Jeff

I Think I remember seeing it, but like Jeff, I don't remember seeing it at any of the cruise ins. It'd make Vickers a good Demo car. That's what my ife drove in a derby at the Auglaize and Mercer County Fairs years ago. She didn't win!

Re: Anyone know this car?
It is too detailed and chromed to be a driver,I remember seeing it and the backing plates were pin striped or chromed and the same with the complete underside. I would have no problem with painting it one color along with spraying the underside black and driving it,the interior would have to have something done with it. Jeff

Re: Anyone know this car?
Truth be known. I like it. I love old ISCA show cars. From reading the Ebay description, this thing is a time capsule.
It must have been some quality work. Almosyt 30 years after the fact and it's still holding up good. I couldn't bring myself to change it.

Re: Anyone know this car?
I let the pics load and I could see the builder/owner in the background,he must be getting hard up for money and it figures the shop next to where I work are involved in selling it. I knew the interior was gaudy but I dont think I could live with it for long,some would want to keep it like it is for historical purposes but I would rather have a original one to work with. The 70s were a strange era and that car shows it,it should go in a museum for show cars because if I got it I would change it alot. Jeff
