Last night this caught my eye sitting at a very small used car dealer near my home. I have never seen anything like it and yes it does have a V-8.

I have more pictures if anyone is interested I can post.

I don't like the nose piece at all, but I like the rest of it. I keep thinking 1/4 mile dirt track when I look at the side shot, the short wheel base. It is probably a lot of fun to drive but it might do a back flip if you punch it.

If you look closely there are latches for a hood but it would cover up all that beautiful engine chrome.

I had the same idea, dirt track.

Anymore details?

Actually the backend looks exactly like one of the Model T Ford's.

I only thing I didn't like was the price tag. The grill didn't bother me as I love the old nostalgia dirt track look.

The front kind of looks like the old Dodge-em, bumper cars at Coney Island, also. The open hood is fine with me but I don't like the grille at all. I would bet that thing would fly.

front end I believe is referred to as Track Tee

Yes off 20's race car

Probably a lot of fun but scary to drive.

Where is this car located?
It has California plates on it.
Might look good with a small pick up bed on the back.

Some build styles are timeless.
Highland Plating Spl was built
before the birth of the Fad "T".
Still looks good today.
