This is an insane find! Great spot and shot.

@DjShift/FoSC: That is no coincidence as the Apollo 5000GT, first built by Intermeccanica in 1963, was young Californian Milt Brown's answer to the Aston Martin DB4 and Ferrari models of the era. These were late sold as the Vetta Ventura because the other company who was building them (International Motor Cars) because of lack of financing. They were built by Vanguard, Inc. of Dallas, Texas until 1966. Vanguard was only able to build 11 cars, and the 11 more that the company should have produced weren't officially complete until 1971.

I agree with DjShift. It does look a little like a Ferrari.
