Tell me about this machine, for 1 point. Who designed & built it? How many produced? Features of the car?

Itīs a one off built by Al Kramer over a Bradley GT. Let me quote the site i found about it:
"Many ages ago, Al Kramer built several Bradley GT kit cars. He figured he could do a better design, and set out to create his own car. Then the second version of the Bradley came out, and Al built seven of them, also saw problems that he thought he could solve with his own design, and was encouraged and continued his work. He built this car by first building a scale model in clay, and then building it at full size in wire frame. Over this he attached burlap, onto which he sprayed resin to harden it. Bondo was used to finish the form, and then a layer of lacquer. Finally, it was waxed and he took molds off it to create his body. It uses a Ford Pinto windshield and rear window, and the side windows were to be Plexiglas."
