While this photo does this very cool Project 7 car little justice, I did see this today. Man-oh-Man..!
I think the second photo is of the earlier concept which had a shorter windshield, among other things...can't actually remember what else changed along the way.

My buddy that lived in Montana said there was winter...... and, the Fourth of July. He has since moved to Alaska.
I would love to move to Montana. But I would probably have to put my MINI body on a Jeep frame. I did see a convertible VW Rabbit done this way.
It is a nice place to visit. The nickname, "Big Sky Country" is well earned. I spent a week at his place during a three week drive to CA back in '79. He's been after me for years to visit him in AK, but I'm still waiting for them to come out with a heavy duty grill guard for the Mini. Too many critters bigger than the car between here and there!
