Sorry, but just don't know. Nice shot of a pretty cool yellow car, tho. :)

If it's not, then that's a very coarse piece of cloth it's on.

The pictures are of a 57 Chevy Pro-street. Triple 5's are the 55, 56, and 57 Chevrolets. The car is a die cast model. It's 1/24th scale. I took these just to show the carburetors on the motor.
