Hub Cap guitar

This guitar features a 1969 Chevy Impala Hub Cap, V8 symbol, neck made by hand, sealed tuners, 10ga. D'Addario acoustic strings, vintage tail piece, Stabilized maple burl bridge with ebony cap, 28 turned aluminum risers, twin piezo pickups, carbon fiber non-adjustible truss rod with ebony inlay, and V fret markers (stick and seal). The decks were made of 1/8th" construction grade Russian Baltic Birch and the tail support was cut from blocks of maple in the shape of a brake caliper which might be hard to see in the pics. 2 coats of sealer/primer, and several coats of gloss black and yellow with several rubbings with 600 grit between coats. A lot of people would ask if it was made of metal.
