I believe that this is a NEWLY BUILT body, not a restoration of the original car.

I always thought early cars were never painted straight white. As white was usually seen as a color reserved for service vehicles such as Ambulances, Milk Trucks, Bread Trucks, etc.

Hi
Interesting car, too bad they didn't keep the Packard radiator and hood shapes. It looks like most any of those period speedster but rather generic. Steve

With all that said, I'D STILL TAKE IT!! WOW!
A friend in my local VMCCA club just finished his Model T speedster...he's so proud and rightfully so, but that baby would blow his doors off...white or otherwise!
