I think some of you have seen this before. What I find interesting is that it was a GM approved modification.

I have to say that that car has been haunting me. I just drove back from the airport. (Baby always
seems to go so slow after flying. The plane I'm flying cruises at 170 kts.) It has to be odd to sit in the middle of the wheel base. The driver's position is just about mid car..... Wow! 2 too many doors!
