Is that a real photo? I have a problem with some the engineering.

Anyone here watch The Brokenwood Mysteries? It's an Australian detective show, and I've always noticed that the Holden Kingswood that Mike Shephard drives looks similar to an AMC Hornet.

Like why it needs a door?
My bet is AI.

One of Steve McQueen’s Most Beloved Motorcycles Has Been Reborn With New Limited-Edition Replicas
The limited-edition motorcycle features a hand-built frame made from nickel-plated 4130 chrome moly tubing, 35 mm Ceriani forks with BSA yokes, and a swing arm with Twin Girling dampers and springs (suspension give is reportedly seven-and-a-half inches up front and nearly four in the back). It’s powered by a fully reconditioned 650cc Triumph TR6 parallel-twin engine connected to a four-speed transmission. The bike’s five-piece body and eight-liter fuel tank are finished in battleship grey and adorned with the Union Jack, the gold Méttise logo, and a reproduction of the star’s signature. Rounding things out are a chrome handlebar and a set of chrome 21-inch wire-spoked rims wearing Mitas tires. The bike is designed for racing, but the Road Pack comes with everything you need to make it street-legal.
Métisse plans to build just 300 examples of the motorcycle, which you can order now through its Métisse website. You’ll have to inquire about pricing, but we’d wager it doesn’t come cheap, especially since another replica of McQueen’s Mk3 sold for S28,000 earlier this year. Each bike also comes with a “Collection Certificate” endorsed by the actor’s estate.

No, was wondering where the ridge beam support was.

Digital Artwork or, as we say now, "shopped" . . . Still a very cool illustration . . .
Zactly. Like the 426 hemis, so that perspective buyers can see what they're getting.
