For those in the "Just what I wanted, a corvette that looks like a 1972 Datsun 240Z right down to the wheels" department.

You have no idea!! LOL.
Dougie sold crown land to his "campaign donator's". He closed the Science center when all the experts said it was a safe building that only needed moderate repairs. He gave Ontario place property to a private spa.
He is currently buying votes for $200.00 a vote
The list goes on!

This very unusual six-passenger coupe was designed by Rust Heinz, a member of the H. J. Heinz family. The design was a joint effort of Heinz and Maurice Schwartz of the custom body firm Bohman & Schwartz in Pasadena, California. Heinz' creation, costing approximately $24,000 in 1938, featured aerodynamic engineering, front-wheel-drive, electric gear shift, four speeds forward and a Cord V-8 Lycoming engine which was modified by Andy Granatelli.

Built on a modified Cord 810 chassis, the car's lower frame was made of chrome molybdenum steel and the upper frame was constructed of electrically welded aviation steel tubing. The allow steel and aluminum body had no running boards, fenders or door handles. The doors were opened at the touch of buttons located on the outside and on the instrument panel. The interior was padded throughout with cork and rubber for safety, sound proofing, and insulation.

In addition o the normal instruments found in a stock Cord panel there were oil temperature, manifold vacuum and fuel economizer gauges, battery charge level indicator, altimeter, barometer and compass. Four persons sat across the front seat and two in the back seat, facing the rear. Approximate top speed was 115 mph. Heinz planned to put the Phantom Corsair into limited production at an estimated selling price of $12,500. His death, however, shortly after the car was completed, ended those plans.

This actual car for sale, chassis number 248436, was the first ever sports car produced by Jaguar – although it bears the name of William Lyons’ company Swallow Sidecar, which eventually became Jag in 1945.
It’s 2.6-litre straight-six would fire the car to a frankly preposterous 90mph, and after its original unveiling it was acquired by Wing Commander Hugh Kennard in 1937. Incidentally, Kennard was the first ever pilot to fly an RAF Spitfire and used this as his daily driver throughout WW2.

After being restored in the 1990s, the car appeared in concours at Pebble Beach and Villa d’Este before being driven and enjoyed in Switzerland by Dr Jenny – does car history get any better than this?
