It was a Bricklin SV-1. Originally powered by an AMC 360 V-8, but
switched to Ford 351 power in 1975. Produced in Canada in 1974-76. Had
gullwing doors. It wasn't as much of a sports car as a safety car ,
hence the name SV-1 for Safety Vehicle 1. After the Brickiln's demise,
it's creator, Malcolm Bricklin, went on to fame as the importer of the
Yugo. :-)
