A friend of mine's dad has a gullwing...its a '55, original and unrestored (save a repaint) in exceptional condition. I am lucky to have been able to drive it once. I must say it drove better than any car built in the fifties has a right to. That thing has a steel trellis style space-frame! Really a race car for the street. It also has straight cut gears in the trans which made for very cool noises in the cockpit.
