"...but I feel drawn to the unusual vehicle...": Linda Grunthaner


Linda -
the draw you feel may be linked to the ever-so-slight resemblance to a
microbus from certain (low and from the front) angles... I rolled through the
images hoping to find some interior and suspension and drivetrain shots. No
such 
luck, though. I wonder what powers it? Maybe if the builder was
suicidal, it 
will have an old Toronado drivetrain stuffed into that wide rear
end. 


The front also slightly resembles Buckminster Fuller's Dymaxion ( a
car that 
always fascinated me), but of course this one has aircraft-style
front wheels, 
where the Dymaxion was more conventional in the front wheel
layout.

Interesting car (but not quite fascinating). 

Thanks for sharing,

David
