The more I look at the pictures, the more it kind of reminds me of the raw bodies made for the Pioneer (think it was Pioneer) in store display(s). Key notes of this are the flat cowl, extended front and rear wheel openings, and the exaggerated front nose dress openings and mounting areas. Same goes for the rear fender swoop and trunk areas
