Default "Glass Gone Wild"

I was reading the new (March '09) issue of ChevyHiPerformance magazine, and came across a radical '66 by Glen Smith. Is anyone over here (C1-2) familiar with this car? Have additional pics? Thanks...

Yea that's it. The Magazine only had one frontal pic, and I was wondering what the rest of it looked like. Again thanks...

I had the pleasure of meeting Glenn and seeing the car up close at Spring Daytona last year....AWESOME doesn't do it justice, especially when you see the finer details of the car......

Thanks guys for the kind words once again.
Even after all these years, it means so much when others appreciate my labor or LOVE.

It's an awesome Car for sure; even more so when I saw it was pretty much hand built. Very nice work to say the least. It appears I've seen the Car before over the years but didn't realize it.

What's it weigh, Glenn?

With the aerodynamics of that body I think you could out-perform one of those "improved" original Grand Sport vintage racers, on equal tires.
