The cookie monster ate it.

How did they get those Toronodo front-wheel-drive wheels onto that thing? They must have some 5 inch spacers behind those lug nuts or something.

I think you're looking at a Tornado that someone tried to improve by installing a Vette body on.

And in the process they ruined a perfectly good Vette body and a Tornado...

A friend of mine took this photo, sent it to me a couple of years ago. Was wondering how long it would take to show up here.

No idea who owns the car, but I believe it resides (or used to) somewhere in upstate SC.
