    Not a Bradley...they are squared and have side glass and hidden lights.
    Karma maybe? No.
    Manta...no.
    Not a Dino. Dinos have rear quarter windows and flat doors.
    Aztec GT?

    see what I mean there are alot of kits out there that have similar things about them but not exact. There is a possibility that it might be home made that is what a friend of mine said.:cry:

    If it was a real one of Ferrari that would be fun because I paid $200 including the trailer.

    My guess: Invader GT. Simular to a Bradley, but made by another company....

    Not a Kelmark or Avenger either.
    The squared rear quarters are hard to match.

    Not an Invader because of the rear quarter profile and rear glass. The hood has a different pattern too. Weird. Might be a rarity or something.
    Try submitting it to THIS website and see if the guy can help.

    My vote(with help from my husband) is something from the Fiberfab line. They were the most popular kit cars for a VW chassis. Maybe an old Valkyrie?

    Valkries are essentially GT40 copies and have 4 headlights.
    His car looks like a Dino mixed with a Bradly and an Avenger.
    No matter what, I super like it.
    I was thinking Kellison or Kelmark modified somehow to be unidentifiable.

    I like Aztec 7s and Banshees the best.

    Did you get an ownership with it? I don't know about Alberta, but getting one for a homebuilt kit car can be a real pain in the A$$ in Ontario.
    A guy down the street from me started building one years ago, he had so much trouble he just pushed it beside his garage and left it there till he died, then they hauled it to the dump.

    Put a Porsche motor in it. (y) Some of the early ones will bolt right in and will give you a lot more power.
