Mark do you have any more info or pics on this car?

Unfortunately, no. I have the same photos as you from the ancient CL ad. I wanna say the car was in upstate NY, maybe?

It was and I did talk to the guy who sold it to someone in CA. The seller really didn't know anything about the car. So this is your first time seeing the pics of the car in primer. The underside of the hood has that dual air cleaner cutout, I wonder what engine would have run a setup like that.
