  >>>That's the former Junior Wilson car.  This one started life as a 
stock '74 Pantera, which was ever-so-lightly tapped in the front.  It 
was really a trivial accident, but the owner decided to sell it.  
Junior bought it, and cut the body off the chassis (in fact I bought 
the rear half of the chassis, and half of that piece is now installed 
in my car).

Junior then had a tube-frame chassis built to support the body, with 
non-stock suspension architecture.  Add a 900-ish hp motor and you have 
a very entertaining, although far from practical machine!
