[Spridgets] Spridget as base for custom car

[Rick]

That's not a Gatsby.  The Gatsby's had a curvy neo-classic rear end.  Still 
available by the way for only $42,500.

It's not a custom car, it's a kit car. They were called Gatsby's. Started 
building them in the late 70's / early 80's. They took a Spridget body and 
placed it on something like a full size Ford chassis if I remember 
correctly. There are probably hundreds of them around. Quite a shame, 
really.
