New to me. It would have been outstanding in 1970. I can see why limited market options forestalled production. Thanks John.

John, so many times you enlighten us with great automobiles. It is a shame that some of them are just prototypes and not actually made, when in reality, they should have. Great looking cars that unfortunately the leaders felt would not make enough sales. What a shame.

John it is a shame. We can only speculate how well these concepts would have sold if the powers that be would have pulled the trigger.John, so many times you enlighten us with great automobiles.

fantastic local choice thanks John. I have a vague recollection of the car. Johns and Tonys descriptions and videos cover pretty much everything, well done gents! A couple of years ago a 'prototype' was listed for sale. Here's some interesting info on it. The link to the auction sale page says withdrawn so unsure of the cars fate at this time.
