VIN ANNOUNCEMENT

I saw that circulating yesterday. I thought it was super cool. Thought about posting it, but figured it didn't really fit here. Stuff had such class back then.

In the description, they called it a "Zeppelin air ship styling"

Almost looks like a door on the rear left. You can see the water damage on the inside. Wonder what material the outside is made of? Almost looks like fiberglass, especially by the vent.
