    Does anybody remember the Jeep that ran at Lions in the 60's? The front was stretched ,no windshield and it looked like a Funny Car. I'll never forget that car cause the guy driving looked like a lion,with the mask they used to wear that had lines on each side of his nose. I'm sure one of you guys should remember it.
    Just realized I spelled Lions wrong,DUH!!!!

    Yep it was called "THE WAR WAGON" was a funny car and about as aerodynamic as a brick but it had style.

    Don't think the second pic is it. That looks like from the 70's.

    There were actually a few. One was done grey (sort of Navy colors), one had a later Jeep body ("Holy Toledo"). Wild days.....
