Was looking through classic listings today and came across this: Piper P2. Never even heard of the company before but this is certainly an eye-catching car. I like this rear 3/4 view but I'm not totally sure if I like it as a whole. Definitely something different and cool though. Anyone know anything about Pipers?

Here's a listing for this particular one:

I don't know what to think about it. Its really obscure and yellow which is kinda cool. But it looks....different, I'll say.

That certainly wins all the "The fuck is that thing!?" awards.

It was pretty much a mid engined triumph, albeit better looking.

Wrong on all counts...Front engine (Ford X Flow 1600), front end Triumph suspension / rear end ford axle...made between 1968 & 1974 - I own one of these (P2) - although the one in the pic here has had a rear window mod. to create a hatchback (bad idea) The original window was solid fix (still a bad idea, but gave the car rigidity).
