I think there was a car just like that in Hemmings Classic Car last year. They were made by a custom shop in Los Angeles. Someone had to fabricate the trunk lid, IIRC. I think there were just a handful built.

That's pretty neat, but I can't figuire out what the grill is from. Can someone enlighten me? I know I guy who has one of those grilles, but he never told me what it was to.

Dylan, that is probably a late '40's or early 50's Packard Grille.

Here is a link to one currently on eBay.
