Its been 30 years since I checked one out, but as I remember, the 
square-tube frames took mid-80s GM front suspension on both ends to accompany the 
Citation/Fiero V-6 front-wheel drive engine- trans that most L-N cars got. . 
Its true that stock steel body panels interchange- the primary mold was pulled 
from one of Gary Hall's Panteras, and some vented fiberglas frt hoods, like 
mine- are old L-N parts. Ex- POCA Pres Les Gray worked for L-N and has some 
interesting stories on them. Ad says 'used for racing'- wonder if it was 
drag racing or road racing? FWIW- J DeRyke
