    This car was featured last year on CARCHAEOLOGY with Randy the main body is a P-38 belly tank and the rear fenders are P-51 wing tanks with a Convair engine and a Harley front end, the car is called the "Patriot" and came out of the late Roger Tronske collection!

    Loving the 308 GTB, but - The tail lights/brake lights and rear indicators/reversing lights are in the wrong positions.
    With the 308/328 GTB/GTS cars, they all came from the factory with the rear indicator/reverse lights on the outside, and the tail light/brake lights on the inside (next to the licence plate) 🙂
