Hey guys-

First, I want to thank all of you for your help and interest in my "Spotter's Guide" project. My hands are all cramped up from 4 days of web-surfing and note-scribbling!

My question concerns the car in the far left of the pic below... there's no specific ID, but it's very similar to another car I found in the Gallery (but can't find now) that was called " '83 flathood". The question is, what gives?
I thought that 1980 was the last year for flathoods, and only 242GTs from '78-'80. Is this a custom done by 2 different owners? Seems like quite a coincidence. And, either way, what is that grille? Never seen it before.

Thanks,
Matt
