It's a Cheetah.

The Chevrolet answer to the Ford Cobra.

Very few made but there are very nice replicas made in the US.

Seen an original yellow one a few years ago on the Nurburgring track ... a very nice and wild car.

1965 Cheetah coupe - the pic says

But how can it be cool with fake knock off wheel nuts ?

My friend has a AC Frua [AC Cobra with a Frua body] and it has fake NUTS with knock off wheels.
At that time the bolted aluminum wheels where hot!

Look cool, but the rear wheel must be close to chafing the drivers arse
