I keep forgetting that you're legally required to have a car RHD converted if you're bringing it into Australia.

I think I've mentioned it before, especially as it was lost to the wildfires that devastated Malibu, CA in 2018, but I love the Dave Cunningham "Li'l Beauty" 1940 Ford Tudor Sedan.

Though always sectioned and channeled but unchopped, it had been through several iterations at this point. I prefer it here--resurrected by Bill Roach--for its RWL blackwall tires and, if I remember correctly, 1956 T-bird wire wheels.

I'm less thrilled about the single paint color. Here it is earlier with white accents.

In its earliest forms, the fenders hadn't been cut so wildly but the rears had been radiused. It also had great side pipes that may or may not have been functional (if functional, end plates could be removed and exhaust gases would take the path of least resistance).

2021 Shelby super snake speedster number 68 of 98 sold for. $121,000 at Mecum Indy

Would this not just be a convertible Super Snake? The Speedster nomenclature is reserved for a very specific styling, just found it odd for Ford to call it that.
The rear end is different to a normal convertible. Plus it’s limited production too.
 
I finally saw one!

The only white GNX from the factory

The Rick Hunt "X-Ray" isn't a GNX, it's an '87 Turbo-T. It has all the parts that make a GNX but it wasn't part of the original run from ASC.
 
I mean it technically counts

Slapper bars on the Camaro are interesting. I'd expect something a bit less bolt-on for something so clearly intended to go racing. I love slapper bars but they just don't feel right there.
