iI don't know the whole story, but Eddie Bello was reputed to rebuild with stolen parts.
(ie stolen cars from other Porsche owners) That alone soured any fascination I had before.

I miss the trucks from the 80s. New trucks are ridiculously large and high.

^wow
And although those air curtain vents that channel air flowing through the foglamp area so that it stays attached over the face of the wheels have become ubiquitous now, the Lucid ducts work with the fascia surface to form a wing shape that actually induces a "thrust vector" forward. That's right, it creates a negative drag of up to 40 pounds at higher speeds.
