Not White, but I'd like my car to look like this one day.

It's Steve McQueen's car, picture borrowed from mcqueenonline.com

Why did Steve McQueen's car have a front-mounted rear foglight? And the rear wheels stick out awfully far (he can't have widened the rims that much), and his flares have fallen off (presumably to put the nazis of the scent).

All in all, the car looks to be in a very poor state in that pic. :(

Here's the story behind the car.

Once McQueen died it was bought by a US collector (who just happened to be the guy that originally did the mods). This picture is of the car recently in it's new owners home awaiting restoration. There was a long write up in one of the English magazines. If you don't have the magazine a quick search on google pops up a few interesting links.
