Default Charley Lillard's Isetta?

Hmmm...seems that Charley couldn't stand keeping his Isetta stock...so....

This is what he ended up with! *





* The picture actually came in an email that Don Breen sent from the recent Detroit Autorama???

It did have a 215 aluminum Olds in it at one time. I think he calls it a Rover engine now. Same engine.

Thought the Rover's had Buick engines in them, but hell if I know for sure.

If it's not a Ford, but rather an Olds/Buick...
