173mpg 1972 Honda 600 Custom.  Powered by both the Honda motor, and an added diesel motor.

That's right.  I suppose you've seen it in the museum where it's on display?
It was built by James Sawyer and is described as an experimental eco car.
Well done.

I don't believe that I have seen this car in person.  I was searching for another Honda-based puzzle, and this car appeared in a Google image search (not "search by image", of course).

Now's your chance!
It's on display at the Sarasota Classic Car Museum in Sarasota, Florida.
