Please don't take offence to my questions . As I said before, I don't have any agenda here, just inquisitive.
1. What shop built the car and who was involved?
I understand the engine is a stroker motor, approx 535 HP to the crank and was built by Greg Bigford of Auto design.
2. I see the taxi as a purpose built auto crosser , assisted by Hotchkiss to represent their products which it does very well. Hence all the Hotchkiss advertising spread over the car's exterior.
3. As I stated before, I have no issue with the fact that anyone can buy the parts to replicate this car. I was interested in who actually was involved with building it, that's all.
