Is that the one with the 5 bolt sprintstars, european blade bumpers with the rear over riders turned upside down modified to act as wheeile bars? :D

Did it have a parachute on the decklid, and a title "envy me"?  8)

[If this is the car, I can't remember the issue details.  :(]

Thinking about it, I do remember the car  :-[ - from memory, I think the artwork was by Paul Barrow, and also included GTV style badges that read "envy me". :)

One thing is for certain though- I do remember quite clearly thinking to myself "I want a car exactly like that"

;D

PS. If any else reading this has the issue in question, please can they scan and post here.  8)

My favorit part of the drawing is the "wrinkles"...  ;)  and I thought the carb "boxes" looked cool to.. atleast from memory.

Thanks a lot Speedwell!
@JHU: Now I understand the design of the "carb boxes"! You are right, they look really cool.
Want to help me beat a ī58 decklid to death this spring? ;)
