Hi Jay,
they used to have those over here in the UK, they were called NOVA kit cars. I
guess that name was already taken over there.
I friend of mine had one at the same time as I had my Lotus Esprit, the
lifting Nova roof was cool, but mine went round corners a lot better :-)

I have!!!!
But, and it's a big but, the car was a very unique car. It was a kit car I
built with my dad called a Sebring - on a VW chassis, but of course for
dad, had to change the engine to a V6. Here's a link to the car:

It is registered as a VW too. So when the cop saw me driving, and punched
in the license plate, and it said "VW" on it, he pulled me over. He
claimed a brake light was out too. He had me show him the VIN stamped in
the chassis. But otherwise, we had a good conversation and I didn't get
any ticket.
