Yes, one of a kind, but based on a production car.

You're very close to the mark there.,
I'll lock it for you until your next reply to see if you can say who did it and be a bit more accurate with the date of the base car.

I've seen this car before and I can't find where. I think it's a 1949 Ford Custom Coupe, but after that my info runs out. Please unlock and let someone else have a go. :'(

Yes, it was based on a '49 Ford, but since I need the builder for the point I'll unlock it for anyone to have a go.
