As padded as the interior appears you should not get hurt in an accident.
Well maybe your eyes will hurt.

 

I have a thing for old show cars and that is badass!

 

Cool ! Looks like a giant Hot Wheels car. Wonder if they made one based on this ? Price seems reasonable with that done up motor.

 

Not quite as cool as @Ryans-GSX show car but still... Built orig. in '66!

 

I used to work just a few blocks away from the Egyptians shop in Dayton. Always interesting stuff around that place.

 

So cool. Green as the dang grass.

 

Love them! Thanks for the pics

 

The interesting thing to me is that looking at the front end , it resembles a Trans Am or GTO in the photo when the car was red. The backend looks like a Cadillac. This car was built in 1966 . Being a show and magazine car , I wonder if it caught the eye of some GM designers and gave them some ideas ?

 

I'm going to assume the red car photo represents the fall of '69 (or later) and a '70 GTO front bumper assembly was utilized on at least one if 3 iterations of the car.

 

First pic looks like at a drag strip D/A …….D/Altered. ??? I would love to know the E.T.

I would love to have the motor out of that thing if its in good shape .
