Three-on-the-tree, swoopy low slung doors and boat-inspired seats? Yes, please. Powered by a low-deck 1955 291ci DeSoto Hemi pushing 235 horsepower on 1940s Ford running gear, the lightweight fiberglass roadster raced at Laguna Seca by its original builder and owner of 60 years, Emilio Pistoresi. Now residing in the collection at Del Dios Motorclub, the very rare 1953 Glasspar G2 in its vibrant copper color is a weird experience in the modern world, testing Jeff Phillips' bravery as Nicole cruises San Diego's historic Del Dios Highway.
