It's not an E-M. They have 4" frame tubes and completely different rear end set ups then this car. What about Street Beast?

Looks like a nice find. Maybe add a wheel upgrade and a period correct air cleaner?

It is not an A&C. Engine bay is different, rear suspension mounts and front suspension mounts are different. The doors have handles on the inside in the center of the door cards.
The hood scoop is different for sure...Mine came out of their molds in 2000, shortly after they changed the molds a bit, new higher hood, fender flares, wheel openings and areas by the doors.
Wasn't there a Classic Carriages out of Florida? Did it become Street Beast?

Tires are first and then will be budgeting for wheels. Will also need paint during first off season. Ordering mirrors and air cleaner and stock looking gps speedo soon.

Hope to have it titled and registered by mid April so I can get her on the road for some short shake down drives before summer.

The wheelbase is 90" and overall body length is 151".

Have searched this forum with original owners name and have come up with nothing. Still searching.

Original builder/owner was Mike Wimberly. He started it in 1992 when he lived in Cali and moved to Texas and finished it there. He sold it to Roger Kornmayer in Miami, Fl.

Ok. Word now is that Yesterday's Automotive purchased Legendary Autos molds and jigs and built the car. It has Art Morrison added-on special suspension package.

Does this sound right?
