The display information card information as follows:

"1967 INVADER In 1967, Bob Reisners INVADER won the AMBR (America's Most Beautiful Roadster) title and was featured in HOT ROD Magazine. Reisner fabricated the steel tube frame to hold two Pontiac V-8 motors, their combined displacement equaling 800 cubic inches. Each motor is mated to a separate B&M transmission; the two transmissions are connected to a single shifter. The four wheel independent suspension is crafted from Jaguar components. Reisner's design exemplifies the fantastic and zany aesthetic of late sixties and early seventies roadsters." (above)
