C.S. had no clue about the "legend" he would become in the future. He was just doing what he HAD been doing for years, putting a big motor in a small car. One day, years later, he woke up one morining and thought to himself,,,,"I can't believe I sold ALL the Coupes".

Legendary as they are there is little doubt in my mind the replica industry has been a MAJOR player in developing the "legend" and "keeping it alive".

This take nothing away from C.S. I DO believe he had an awesome vision in 1962 and the gumption to pull it off! My hats off to him.
