The Pray cars are actually quite nice-looking when they aren't painted...that color. I'm not sure what you call it. It's like metallic Thrush Brown Light, which (no offense to any owner of a car painted such) I absolutely cannot stand.

What other car ( Chassis ) it`s beneath this 2nd ?

This is a beautiful Replica to me


I always confused the later samco cords with the first Glenn Prey 8/10 cars. After reading Glenn Prey's autobiography I gained a greater appreciation for the 8/10 cars and now I think they are kind of neat. Most people do not realize the amount of original Cord parts that went in to those early cars. I see them standing on their own as opposed to being "replicars" which in general I do not like.

Your first link points to a Glenny Prey Cord 8/10
Your second link points to a SAMCO Warrior

I don't think anyone anywhere would be fooled into thinking these were original Cords. None of the proportions are right to begin with.

There are some very good fiberlass and aluminum copies of Cords out there. These are the ones that sometimes misrepresent themselves as originals.
