I don't know if you know but Ray had the front window rubber made. It's the correct shape to hold the chrome in place it was molded of his og rubber. Call the shop to get a hold of use or pm me for the number if you need one.

Sorry... I was drooling over the Ghia in the background... what was the question?

Hey, the fenders have an old 1954-1957 Mercedes Benz 300S vibe, on top of the fender arches, Pip.

I snapped this pic some 25 years ago, somewhere in LA.  Might be the same car......or not  Grin


PS, on second thought not. This car lacks the air intakes below the missing rear decklid eyebrow, but does
have a 356 grille (seldom used). 

That is unless someone lost the trim and puttied over the intake holes?  When I last saw this car it was
wired like a WW II bomber, aircraft wiring and add on gauges.
