1966 kustom built by Barris, the Tastee Big "T" found in the parking lot at the LA Roadster show!
Above: Bubble gum card showing the original, and it was brought back to the Barris shop in the early 70's and they made a few changes. They built a new body, dropped the front end, took off 2 of the fake blowers and put on a windshield http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?p=4460174
