Is it a one off or was it intended for production?

It was offered as a body for Ford mechanicals, but I doubt very many were made (probably just one or two!)

I took the picture from a book.  I haven't been able to find it on the 'Net (same as 5476)

Congratulations on the milestone. Nice to see you earning points as well as setting first-class puzzles.
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia
