I started building the Roofus Special. It is a boattail speedster inspired by 20-40's Indy and Grand Pix racers.
It gets its name from the source for the body sheetmetal. A 1954 Cadillac roof!
Drivetrain is from a 1960 Jaguar MKII.

The whitewalls get replaced with bias plys. If the build turns out really nice, the wheels will get relaced with larger diameter hoops......18's or maybe 20's
