I love that Parisian fastback - it reminds me of an Aston Martin DB 4 except with a 20 inch larger wheelbase!

Thanks for sharing.
Lots of metal work in this car, quite incredible including little things like getting the hood to mate to the grill. Noticed that he removed the fairly large crown from the production hardtop roof's forward section. Always wondered what that would look like. The fastback style would have fit perfectly in the late '40s American car scene and well into the '50s in Europe.
