Photo car for the month of December on a car calendar I got from a Honda dealership. Photo by Roy D. Query. No other info given. Is this a custom body? At least the top and windshield?

Thanks.
Gee. I feel so "in-the-dark[|)]" about this car.

Looking at the picture of the car before I read the story, I thought someone had found an old 1920s Studebaker chassis and radiator shell and fabricated some sort of fiberglass body for it. That top looks like the hood of an old Honda Civic, too. A really unique car, as I found out reading the Hemming's article.
