Alright here's something unusual, something right up my alley, so to speak.

Created by one and only Ed "Big Daddy" Roth, this flight of fancy is based on decidedly less fancy Chevy Corvair.

It's got Corvair's little 145 c.i./2.4l 100hp motor and its rear suspension. So it's not that quick.

There's pretty extensive story on this link:

How to get in this car .... will a ladder be supplied?

I think you have to lift up the canopy to enter the car's cockpit.

Yes, that for sure ... but I mean ... the car has no door to open and the canopy doesn't open entirely backwards.
 
looks like a walmart special edition for a hot wheels car
 
First thing I thought of when I saw this:

...I just realized how sloppy the thread title was. Dang it. Fixed it now but still not 100% sure of it. Anyone got a better proposal?

Torn between "Ed Roth Road Agent 1964" and "Roth & Customs Road Agent 1964"...

It's definitely not a modified anything - just a tube frame with some Corvair underpinnings - so we can forget the tuner categories. The big bonnet emblem says "Roth", so I'd head straight for "Roth" as the manufacturer.

I'd say "Roth Road Agent" is sufficient make/model, but I'd probably add "by Ed Roth" after it, as it seems appropriate to do so. And "1964", of course.

...Thanks for the input. Applying noooooowwww...
 
Looks like something you would find in a hotwheels packet
hot wheel cars in Gt6 would be epic, But in a way the Road Agent seems too fantasy-ish to be added.
