...Perty neat Arlie, but why not just make it a Shelby clone?

Thats the old "Okie Special" without the "Okie Special" script. Check it out.

Don't know but since you asked I'll throw out some possible reasons.
Maybe a lack of money.
Maybe whoever built the car likes the GT/CS look better.
Maybe whoever built the car knew that a GT/CS convertible clone would be much more unique than a Shelby convertible clone.
Maybe after dealing with all that poorly fitting fiberglass on the rear of the car he or she couldn't bear to deal with it on the front of the car.

I'm out of ideas.

They took off the Okie Special script. Or are those old pics?

Wow! that's pretty neat - I like the red and the white...

Hey, you're right! So it's an "Okie Special" clone! Good memory there, member o' many avatars. Speakin' of that; is Arlie's a "fitting" one???

As far as I can tell, Arlie does`nt have a "Grinchly" bone in his body. :wink:

Oh, you mean for the season? Yep, its a little early for "The Grinch" but he`s probably wearing his "Grinch" ties already, so we have to humor him.:rolleyes: :grin:
I personally think "The Grinch" is very cute and he did the right thing in the end by being nice to all the "Whos".:cheesy:

That's right. He has a bad rep. but that's just because people always forget about the end of the movie!!!

Here he is

I don't think that is the Okie Special. Wheels are different, Air Cleaner, Script, and this one has original seats with headrests. The Okie, if I remember correctly, had Chevy Velour high back seats. Nice looking car to turn into a Shelby Clone. Mike

Here he is

...Hmm... 'Doesn't match the photo in his gallery. ;-)

These are two different clones. Beside the differences under the hood, one clone has a console with factory in-dash a/c the other clone has the a/c under the dash.
