Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

If it is a CMC, here is the short story:
Classic Motor Carriages was forced to close in 1994 after the Florida Attorney General's Office filed suit against it on behalf a several hundred of its customers. It agreed to pay $2.5 millon in compensation. At the same time as the case was proceeding a new company, Auto Resolutions, was set up by the owner George Levin to continue making Classic Motor Carriages vehicles trading under the name Street Beasts. Street Beasts closed its business in 2010 and auctioned off its plant, moulds, and machinery.
Post some pictures of the car, engine compartment, interior and dash, door opening, trunk compartment, and front suspension. We can then assist you from there.
