The rear quarter reminds me of an Oldsmobile Toronado. Any relation there?

That looks like the courtyard at GM Tech Center. 

Is this a General Motors project?

Some slight hints of the Maverick, here and there. Perhaps they were going to emulate AMC and chop a Maverick to make the Pinto?

Could this be a variation on the Ford Flashback of 1975?

Don't know that one, but that's not this car's name anyway.
It has a specific name and purpose.

No.  Nice big V8 I believe! (but it might be a straight 6)
