Definitely not with that bar in place!

It's a great looking car. I can even live with the wheels.

Here's another that's even more of an oddball.



Ed Olson's 1969 TR6 with Pontiac V8 engine

Quote:
Engine: 487 cubic inch Pontiac (4.15 bore 4.5 stroke). Lift: 477/477 Duration at 0.050: 231/226 at 0.050".
Induction: Garrett TV75 turbo with a upgraded T88 compressor wheel. CSU Holley 850 carburetor.
Exhaust: stainless log manifolds, 2.5" crossover, 5" exhaust.

This is a home-built, father-son project. The first time the car saw the street it was a bunch of used parts, the motor and nitrous borrowed from my 68 Firebird. It was a 5 color Frankenstein with the doors just welded on, but it ran a 9.99s quarter mile.

I don't know why, but I've always preferred these in blue.



with green coming a close second.
