Trying to find website on vintage-to-modern car body kits?

I saw a car the other day with what looked like a Chevy Malibu (or similar) body (doors, etc.) and a mix-matched front and rear end on it. I ran into a car like this before a year or so ago but can't seem to find the website where they make the body kits. Basically it's car body kits that LOOK like old cars on newer car bodies.... Anyone?

    its going to be difficult to find a kit to fit your application. In most cases, customization like this comes from a auto custom shop. cars are often "fitted" with these front ends or rear ends from another body kit or even stock body parts from one vehicle year to another. It takes more than purchasing that parts. Molding the new or different body part takes custom work like fiber glass, molding, and frame work to marry the two pieces. For example, a cadillac front end on a chevy silverado will take proper fitting and body work to make it look like it was made that way stock. Check out some custom body shops in your area or to any auto body repair shop and they will point you in the right direction of what shop to go to.
