I remember that feature... I believe the guy had been racing that car since it was almost new(?).

Here are some more pictures of it. I see that car every year at a event that Parts Obsolete does in Portland Oregon.

Thanks for the link, Chris. That car is cool! I would love to build something like that. Early body, IRS pan, gutted interior and a nice little 1700cc engine.
