Ive never seen one. I thought it was an older Toyota from the rear, until I got close. Lucky I didnt run into something trying to check it out.
It was looking good! Straight body, purring along.
I never even gave 780 a second thought. Always thought it was just a 740 with and 8 cylinder engine. Not!
Theres a little write up here, case anyone is interested.
