There were no Super Widebody cars built since 2017 and there are no plans to build any in 2020, because the custom made wheels are no longer available. **Super Widebody flares are VERY different than the flares on Classic Motor Carriage (CMC) or FiberFab cars look very closely!** This car is ready to be shipped to it's new owner, so this is your chance to jump on it and make it your car. If you are serious about owning this car I can do some customization for you if you act quickly. It comes with a classic Pewter exterior, but add the Baseball Glove Tan seats, dash and door panels along with the custom made Fuchs style wheels and you have a car that is simply stunning! It has a Nardi steering wheel and a crested horn button as well as all the other typical emblems, badges and crests that will give this car the iconic and timeless look that was originally envisioned for these cars some 60 years ago. If you're looking for fun and excitement and you like the idea of "the wind in your hair," but think a motorcycle is too dangerous or, you already have a motorcycle, but your significant other is tired of riding on the back and you want something that is just as exciting, but more comfortable and way more classy, then this car is for you!
