Saw one of these on Barrett Jackson, thought it was pretty cool. 161cc motor, 80hp IIRC.

Thats what I've heard. Also, there were only (somewhere in the range of) 457 made. There was a rumor on Barrett Jackson that a man in Colorado Springs,CO had 250 of them as part cars. Which I found funny because it seems to be a very basic car, there can't be much more than 250 parts in the whole thing.

If it makes 80hp its 161 Cubic Inches not 161 cubic centimeters. Cool car though
