That column looks like it comes almost straight out and is close to the dash. More like an MG style column.

Fiberfab is actually who I wanted to put in the earlier post, however, nobody would have known they were the original producer and parent company that turned in to Cars/CMC/Innovative/StreetBeast. and how knows how many other names.........it is just that before the business was sold and changed to CMC. The early cars had that same "H" pattern as shown i the picture above, the same body shape and style (uncertain when the change over to the classic CMC heavy lip occurred), as well as the hood hinges and dash lip, I do know CMC did buy out another company in the early days for "better" molds and jigs but unsure if the company had a "stage presence" as I have never been able to find it listed anywhere in early publications.
