The Thunderbolt would be the perfect compliment to my Enfield rifle.

Looks like AMC copied many elements for the Pacer. I wonder if Zagato got inspiration from this for their Elcar (74-76).

I've always wanted the shorter jungle carbine Enfield, you might get that model to fit in this car...

edit: or...get a roll-back cloth roof like the 2CV?

The jungle carbines look cool with that flash suppressor. Mine is full length, so part of it may have to hang out the window of the Thunderbolt.

i believe they only made about 120 units of the enfield 8000. Most were bought by electrical companies at the time.
