Superformance Coupe in Ohio
More photos of the Superformance Coupe. This was taken as it was being readied for Reno Hot August Nights. This angle shows a pre production wheel with dark grey centers and a polished lip.

Superformance Coupe in Ohio
Here are some of my photos of the SPF Coupe in Ross, Ohio at Dynamic Motorsports while the car was beding readied to ship to Reno for Hot August Nights.
Notice the two treatments of the wheels in their preproduction form. Dark grey centers or white centers with polished lips.

This side view let's you appreciate the athletic stance of this beautiful coupe. The treatment in this photo of the wheels is white centers with polished lip.

Wow,
That is one beautiful car! It is an almost perfect art form. If I were going to buy one, I'd ask three questions:
1. Does the third brake light have to be so large? A few LEDs lined up along the edge would do and look much less obvious.
2. Does the rear window have to be held down with screws/rivets? Can't it be attached invisably?
3. Why do the rear window corners have to be square on such a curvaceous creation?
This near perfection, why stop short?
Paul

It's sure pretty, but I can't help thinking it would look more"right" with smaller wheels. Neither of those treatments does the job , somehow.

Allen,
My understanding of the design was not to completely replicate the originals look.

One beautiful car--white wheels on a white car ala the # 56 Simon/Schelssinger car, though 
OK--I'm sold--SPF 427 Cobra coming on the market
Absolutely my favorite "vintage" looking car--I want one
