NMNA - Alumiinum bodied Brit.  With the weirdest drivetrain, a pancake flat four cantilevered over the front axle?

Is it rear wheel drive? BRZ/FRZ drive train

I think this is the same car that was for sale about 20 years ago, but it was complete then and a lot cheaper. If it is, it must be extremely rough now and not worth $2500. Especially without the drivetrain.

There is currently a Devin bodied, Jowett Jupiter frame with an engine swap on eBay right now. I would love to own it, but the price is way beyond my Challenge Friendly comfort zone.

Another look at the photo in my own post makes me think that this is a really smart way of handling engine access in a fiberglass bodied car.

Look at that driveway too. What a collection of interesting vehicles.

That looks like Geoffrey Hacker's "Forgotten Fiberglass" in Tampa. Talk about interesting vehicles!  www.forgottenfiberglass.com
