Appears he lost a few thousand. Maybe make it up in volume (that's my general business plan)?

can someone explain the paint colour and the lack of cowl tag. maybe I am missing a story or something from years ago about this car.

 

[GCAMINO]

Maybe someone here has the answer to the missing cowl tag??? If not , it shall go down in history as a gypsy mystery.

Really, no story about the paint, the car, ??

It’s a clone, real car was killed in a tow bar accident shortly after Indy ‘62 (painted canary yellow at the time).Thus why Platt and Alan Hyder bough Nicholson’s ‘62 Aluminum nose Impala coupe Dyno won B/FX at Indy’62 with. Christened the bounty hunter.
