There was a restoration outfit in New Jersey, USA that created this to show
off their abilities (which were considerable). We gave it a "special award"
trophy at a rally because it was so unusual. The business broke up at some
point in the last few years and may have started again under one of the
former partners. I can't remember the name of the business offhand but one
of the guys first names was Nils. I'm not sure if I have a picture anyplace.

Saw a picture, can't help on this one.
