Just to put a TV spin on your observation ...

I think you just identified why "Street Rods" is no longer doing business in TV and have basically lost any panache or interest they might have had, around the country.

There have been very few vehicles, post 1964/65 Mustang, that had/have what would be considered "Iconic styling", enough so it could translate into a custom golf cart.

Other than perhaps, Jeeps, Corvettes and possibly Dodge Challengers what other American cars are there?

In the imported class, maybe VW Bug, various Porsches, BMW Z3, M-B 280 SL ... I think the list ends about there.

I think Ferrari and Lamboghini are too esoteric ... although I'd love to see a McLaren themed golf cart.
