With so many folks on here building mid-engined cars I thought this might be some inspiration and maybe the motivation for a radical type III square back (Variant). This car is being built by Diver's Street Rods and uses a Ferarri Modina 360 engine and Transaxle in the back of a Rambler Americana Wagon. The story goes that the son took the donor car for Prom Night but didn't get it home in one piece.
