Is this for Disneyland or associated with Disney? or is it just a prop or for a collector?

pure fun project, no Disney connection.  He has a really cool hot rod and custom shop.  My oldest friend since age 8 when we were in Cub Scouts together. 
 
Here is a link to his shop page:

That's really cool, I always like seeing cars that look out of the norm while driving around.

I always that that as well, maybe an early vette because of the curves.

I really like to look on little kids faces when they see something like that. Nothing tops that. There was 00+ monte carlo up here that had lightning mcqueen paint scheme, the kids would go nuts for it in the yearly parade.
