Definitely some replica of a 500 SSK but so many have been out there it would be difficult to determine which company is responsible. I don’t think it’s an Excalibur but it is close to what came out of the Classic Factory of Pomona, CA.

They used Ford chassis & drivetrains. AFAIK, less than 100 of those are known to exist, though.
