Must be American body, the hood badge don't seemed to be centered on the hood, opps! At least with a Jap engine it out to run forever.

Not a clue on the maker. Is it metal or a glass body?

don't know the body type yet confused24.gif

Definitely looks like glass, but no idea on who makes it.

next info - it accelerates in about 4 sec (0 - 60 mph) driving.gif

That's a Piontek, right? Car and Driver gave that think a lot of ink in my day.

Pretty damn good performance for the money if I remember it right. Sort of a homegrown Sport Renault...
