Saw so many amazing show cars at the shows growing up in KC then they disappeared? Not even seen again in magazines. What happens to a solid chrome Model a coupe with only the outside of the body and fenders painted candy red?

There was actually such a car in your past? Or is it a question?
 
It really was solid chrome. Full fenders were chrome then painted on top. Mirrors on the floor underneath showed nothing but chrome above. Eight full length straight pipes out the back. The very rare Lincoln engine with the tall ribbed valve covers. I get that it couldn't be driven on the street but really annoys that we will never know what became of it and other pieces of art like it.
