You are correct. What gave it away? It was hard to find something non-descriptive on this car.

The exposed riveted seam. I remember a while back, Boyd Coddington, I think, was involved in the restoration or creation of a car inspired by those lines. Was on TV show at the time. Yearrrrs ago now tho

Hmm first thought nissan tiida but headlights look a bit different...

First hint: This car comes with a 2.4L I4 engine in most examples. However, there is a rare variant with a much more fun 3.5L V6 under the hood!

2007-2012 Toyota Blade Master G

I think Boyd made a custom 1930s Delahaye, not so much a Bugatti 57SC.

....I need your help guys. Really. But first, the obligatory pictures. Another car straight out of Ron Pratte's collection. It went under the hammer in Barrett Jackson's auction this past January for a cool $671, 000. Ker-ching. Built by the legendary Boyd Coddington and his boys, you...

Huge fan of Boyd Coddington's work, and Chip Foose's designs, especially they were/are based in SoCal.

One of my dream projects is to buy a Blade Master G and swap the panels/lights out for a base level Corolla/Auris since they're the same chassis. Sleeper spec

Hopefully a little hard to guess…

Given it's sharp lines, it's almost like they drew it in a Vector (W8) based CAD programme...

Again, you are correct. Was it difficult at all?

 

[confusis]

With the thousands of hours I spent in Gran Turismo 2, it stood out to me pretty quick - first thought was a Lister Storm though

Mid-1960s Ford Falcon. I know those infamous taillights anywhere.

 

[confusis]

Bingo!

Hopefully this one needs a hint.
