Bought an unusual car

Understand this is not everyone's cup of tea (of course, neither are Cougars) but I've liked this styling in cars since I was a kid and I think this is pulled off pretty well compared to other ones of the same type:

Is that an Excalibur? A strange part of my psyche has always liked them as well (of course I've also admitted I'd drive a Tiffany...)

It's not an Excalibur. The windshield and T-tops look to be C-3 Corvette.

I know two things; one, I'm very curious and two, I really like it.

My car is a gravity hybrid.  The gasoline engine gets me up the hills, and gravity gets me down.

I don't like them either.  Lots of those types of conversions weren't pulled off too well.  Lots of ground-up builds didn't turn out too well either.
