bob metz "la rocket"

The LaRocket was kustom car build by Bob Metz. The car was built to resemble the 1951 GM LeSabre Concept Car. Bob started the build with a 1939 LaSalle chassis and a 1951 Oldsmobile Rocket engine. The front fenders and hood were 1941 Oldsmobile, and the rear fenders were 1949 Buick.

@metalshapes: I don't know who moved that puzzle and if your point has been awarded. I am waiting for the answer of the other editors.
Be patient.
