I was glad to find this car the other morning. I had heard it roll by the previous evening and it sounded like a demon.
Fat drags on the back and skinny up front? Check. 5-point harnesses? Check. Very, very loud exhaust? Check. Insane supercharger howl you can hear blocks away? Check.
Arguably not street-legal here, but who cares? Classic drag monsters are classic.

Reminds me of this Finnish (at least occasionally) street driven El Camino.

Not here, unfortunately! Just having 5-point harnesses and no regular shoulder and lap belt makes it a no-go. The rules are super strict here in Quebec.

Isn’t it the same in America? I heard (don’t know if it’s true) that harnesses aren’t considered safe because if the car is flipped over you can’t move your body around like you could with a regular seatbelt.

No, not Canada. Just Quebec. 5-point harnesses aren’t road-legal here AFAIK. Not sure why, but the province has some very strict vehicle modification rules.
