Makes me wish I had pictures of my wife's middle 50's VW bug.  I used to hear loud comments, because I put Road Runner decals on the doors.  Seems some car aficionados took issue with it.

1959 Buick Electra 225 Convertible. In 1959 the displacement of the engine was increased to 401 cubic inches. They had 10.25:1 compression and were rated at 325 HP. The 1959 Buick was by far the best looking car of that year and one of my favorite Buicks of all time.

I read an article back in the day, that driving one of these   Issettas with a Corvair engine was almost impossible since both the horse power and the weight distribution resulted in wheelies no matter how much, or how little,  throttle you used.  They were always rearing up.
