I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

Indeed it is.
I'll lock it for you to see what else you can find out about it (not that I know much else...!)

I know about as much as you. I have found a photo of the rear end , and commentary from the photo-taker ; when asked about the car the owner didn't know much either ! It's presumed to have been built in the mid-50s with a proprietary glassfibre conversion kit, and the base car is definitely known to be a 1949 Crosley.

We know the same as each other now!
If anyone has any more info it would be very welcome.
