Anyone heard of a factory stainless steel bodied sierra

I'm told there is one nearby, possibly soft top.

Low range offer an aluminum LWB body, but I have never seen or heard of a stainless.

Can you imagine the finger prints? omg

The delorean was brushed stainless. Cool concept, but not practical. Scratch? rub it with steel wool :lol:

This could be it, I rolled my eyes & thought Delorian too, but the story goes it came from Philipines and is only one in Aust.

Ford built some S/S cars including a 60TBird
The S/S is hard on die's so they often only do it at the end of production

Apparently Ford only built two stainless '60 square birds:

Quote:

On early models, built through the end of December 1959, there was a smooth belt molding; this was corrugated on cars built in 1960. The '60 model also used a number of stainless-steel components, and two were actually built entirely of stainless steel by one of Ford's suppliers, Allegheny-Ludlum Steel Corporation.
