If we are still playing "WTF is That" I'd say it looks like a supercharged 1960 Edsel. |
Oh, that's true! It does. |
I think its supposed to be a '63 Pontiac Tempest, hence "Temper Tantrum."

Actually, being a big Edsel fan, I think its a pretty cool idea!
BTW, happy birthday Ed Roth!

Yeah thats it.
"Wing-tank special, built in England by USAF Lt. Col. Edward Richer, used a Ford Anglia chassis, plus parts from Chevrolet and Austin. The tanks came off an early Lockheed T-33 jet trainer." |

That car has no excuse to ever run out of fuel with those size tanks.
