Pic #1 was the Astro XP880II (Shinoda designed)

From pic #2 on down, those were CORVAIR prototypes. The 2nd one was the Monza GT clay, then the rest were the Monza GT and the Monza SS. Did you catch the pic of Larry Shinoda sitting in the driver's seat?

Notfarnow,


When I had a 'surf' one of the UK owners had done a chop on his.
And someone near me also did it on a lWB landcruiser too,
Good luck,

will there be progress photo's?

Bonus points if you can identify the gentleman seated next to Mr. Shinoda.

Love that 4runner, Jake.

The yellow Viper I posted a while back is a car was one that one of his employees bought as a wreck & rebuilt it, a week later he totaled it..

I haven't seen the cow car, but the driver does look like one of his guys, as does the area..
