SBC--Yes, theoretically it could be, if I had modelled it that way. When I modelled the body, I was going for illustration purposes only, so the entire body is modelled as one peice, which would be impossible to do in metal. If a person was actually going to model it so that it could be built from metal, then it would have to be modelled in as many pieces as a real roadster, and then the individual pieces would have to be "assembled" in a cad file to create the model. The reality is that even a competent metal shop would find it almost impossible to create the compound curves found in most pieces of a roadster body from flat sheet stock. Those pieces are stamped from flat stock using a multi ton press and steel male and female dies.Old guy hot rodder
