Haven’t read the article yet. These cars don’t get much print.

I kinda sorta remember that issue but I can't remember what was powering that buttless, and all you can see is the blower.

Those cheesy 70s stripes and spoiler actually make it look like it has a butt!

It had a supercharged 403, with a claimed 600hp.

Quite a bit of engineering but IMO they picked the ugliest 442 they could have and threw an equally ugly paint job on it. I have seen this car in person...
