Great idea on how to display a car. I bet it took a lot of work to come up with everything needed to build a great display like that.

Gudmund, this is amazing. Was it done in Norway as a display for a fair or convention?

The box says 60 and the little sign says 58 fuelie. Louvered 58 hood can be seen. Neat display though. Very creative.
